140mph clocks
« on: 06 February 2008, 18:17 »
on my 8v GTI the clocks go up to 140mph and the rev counter goes upto 7k I was thinking to get some white dials ... but they only sell 120mph and 7k designs ... why dont they do 140mph?  :undecided: :huh:

I had heard once that you can take the dials off, scan them in to your computer, and then edit them print them, and put the new ones in? Could be worth a try?

I wanted those, the seller agreed to sell to us for £50 buy it now, but then didn't bother to reply when we said yes we wanted them  :angry:

Gutted that they're unavailable from VW, was going to ask there next.
