Dash pic on their way. The standard 20vt ones are good but you may want soem better plus/le ones. As the dials are in the car I could not get the camera square on due to the steering wheel being in the way and on our Nikon in front of the wheel was too close frown

bockers thank you i receib the image... I try to do the design

if someone has a dashboard with the most use in the 20vt plus or le mph and sent the drawing that I did not dismantling the dashboard because use paper plant to have everything 100% with no margin for error, because I am afraid to do that from a picture there may be some mistake ...
then I return the dashboard and do a special price of his own...

it seems like you have dedicated alot of time to this, thus the results are good.

You should write a 'how-to' on this..


good work..keep up the ideas

As for the silver or white ones, I was put off this when I did a silver dial conversion on my Punto GT. They were quality Lockwood dials but the glow through in the dark was all uneven and looked terrible. Ended up going back to standard frown

Well done john, it’s really easy to take to bits, I just made a little pin remover like the axel puller on model cars.

I had an email saying the dials were nearly ready and he was going to send some Pics. I am eager for a set of these as I have a dash in pieces, with all dials removed ready for building up.

I suppose that will depend on the quantity. When we get more details it may help to sort a group buy and pay the postage once from Portugal.

I hoep to have a couple of Dashes ready for these and then fit and test them. If they voth work then we could do an exchange type program. Just early days at the moment though.

You could close up the numbers on the oil pressure gauge to keep those with oil pressure worries happy! laugh


They do look great, love the idea of having the LE Number on the dial, superb.

We do need a good scan of the LE dials first frown They are different from the 20VT in that the speedo markings are different.

Thank you Leugim. I have emailed him offering my help as I am eager to get a set of these and maybe set up a group buy.

I apologize for the delay but I had to leave and too much work to do what I do is limited to the dashboard

the 20vt can say that is already completed or LE plus the need to draw the MPH is not correct because

is practically impossible make mph and km/h because the letters become small the machine is unable to make the cut
