The bits around the lcd displays were neatly tucked away around the back when I put them back together but overnight came loose and now look like that. If I decide to keep them I need to tidy them up but also need to alter the rpm needle as it's set to low below the zero mark. Not sure if I will keep them yet so not going to take them apart again until I get my new clocks.     Deano

Cheers Mate  They look better on the car than in the picture and I am thinking I will swap the face panel into my new clocks.     Cheers     Deano

That's probably what I would say, but then again, who else has done something like this? I can't think of anyone, so Wayne, it respect to one of you most famous phrases:

"It's different."

 :grin:


Seriously though, when I saw it I thought "WTF" but at least you got the balls to do something like that, I wouldn't lol! Do what you want man, if people rip you for it then feck them all. People don't like my beige interior but I do, feck 'em lol!

This has in fact given me an awesome idea but it's a case of buying the correct tools and being able to pull it off right. I don't think I'd be able to :(
