HI guys... I have just seen an awsome speedo on youtube, unfortunately I watched it and lost it :S.
Basically it started at the 12 oclock position and goes round 3/4's of the way up to 200mph... the rev counter was also the same and just gave it an awsome look!
Im wondering if its possible to get the speedo faces printed up and remove the pins from their starting position and replace them at the 12 oclock position...
Anyone done this or know of any ready made faces???????
I know there is a guy in Germany selling em but he want loads of dough for em...
So I thought that if some of u lot were interested we could get the price down. At the moment he's asking 199 euros.

Brilliant solution.......
moving the redline area nicely BEHIND the steering wheel.
IF I ever would turn the dials I would turn the rev counter only to have the redline RPM at top.
So when you're having a go or drag race you just need to shift when the pointer is vertical witout reading the numbers. (these days we have shift lights so not really required)

150 Euros per cluster + 9 euros shipping with decrease of 4 / 5 clusters.
Interesting. But still bit too expensive if u ask me.
Thoughts?

i like the temperature gauge and fuel gauge with real units on.
however, the rev counter is messy around the econometer and makes it hard to read.
it would be useful to me though as i have a smallish steering wheel and my head is only 1" off the roof so i can't read the top of the dials without stooping my head down.

Why didn't he just start them both at 7 or 8'o clock and finish at 4 or 5'o clock?!?
The redline is seriously messy on the above picture.
I'd prefer a nice E30 M3 cluster instead though
