      I wonder if there'd be any demand for a matching boost gauge face?
      It would have to be for a particular one so the calibration would be accurate e.g. VDO and obviousy it would need to be possible to disassemble and reassemble the gauge face.

      Would need looking into by someone to see if could work out - I dunno.
      Sorry I can't volunteer to take this forward myself.

      If there is enough demand i can source boost gauges (not just the face but the whole gauge) from the same company, they can supply EL plasma ones that light up the same as the main cluster and aux gauges, im pretty sure they can also be controlled by the spare connection on the aux face switch.

      HTH.

                  Hey Bo
                  Got a chance to get one set done tonight took me about a hour and half.
                  And I took my time not to mess anything up, not bad.
                  Small update:
                  Stock:



                  Stock faces with carbon facial and alloy rings.
                  I was impressed with how this looked couple small changes made a hell of a make over.



                  Finished and Bad ***!! LOL



                  Took some pics as I went too, here they are:
                  Making sure they work before installing



                  Stripped down



                  Faces installed and needles modified



                  Thanks again Bo
                  Any news on some matching boost gauges?
                  cheers

                      They are just factory needle's I modded, oh ya they still light up!!
                      Good timing I just got done swapping out the bulbs for LED's and bench testing it (since LED's only light with the right polarity) Here's a pic (not a great one) of it lit up..cheers

                                @ Toxcheap, That setup looks great. Thank you for your photos and well done one the needles

                                Re the boot gauges, this is in progress i should have an update by next week.

                                So far what we have come up with is:

                                Blue el./ Plasma gauges that match the colour tone and layout of the gauges they have already supplied.

                                and just last week they have produced a new product. -

                                Smoked plasma gauges.
                                I guess these look similar to the smoked AutoGuage ones when not illuminated but once they are illuminated they glow like the other gauges.

                                ---

                                The Main Cluster Plasma gauges in red/orange is also possible, im finding out about minimum quantities and prices at the moment.

                                Will update soon.

                                Cheers.
                                Bo
