Default Show us your custom clocks in your dash please

Had my dash customised by Dave (Twins) and am feeling really guilty with putting the standard clocks back in so can you show me your custom clocks please to help me decide.

Cheers
Dave

Here's mine at the moment and as you can see that putting the standard clocks back in would be criminal






CosKev3,
I've got autometer gauges as you can see so that would be pretty much exactly what I am looking for
Where did you get them from and how much?

stuart collins,
Bloody hell Stuart I'm not going that radical

Porkie,
I really do like the Stack Tachometer but what's it like for reading the speed? Is it quite clearly visible? as Stack don't do a seperate speedo and rev counter

I'm quite liking this to go in where the clocks were. Anyone got them and can tell me whether they are worth it or not?


Cheers
Dave

dave they ARE the bollocks but also at a premium

tbh i think you should take back one of your gauges too as thats CLEARLY pointless, may as well have a hologram to read,,,,,,,, i trust you are aware of the gauge im refering too

I haven't got any pics of it yet - but i'm using a few 'leftovers' from work to build a custom dash...

Basically its most of the stuff in an F1 steering wheel relocated and the chip reflashed...

Focus Digital Odometer/Trip Counter
Graphic Display showing temps and pressures with section to illuminate red and flash with problem location i.e 'Oil Pres' etc.
Left to right RPM increment LEDs, Blue up to 5000, then Yellow up to 6000 and Red up to 7500
Large Gear Indicator
Boost Gauage and AFR Gauge

And all of that is gettingmounted up in some lovely left over 2mm carbon sheet

timrud,
I've had a quote of Ł928 with the fuel sensor and delivered. Is this a good price or can you tell me how much you paid for yours and where you got it from?

Cheers

I just went to Demon Tweeks. IIRC the Stack always uses your original fuel sensor? Had mine so it does fuel pressure too, but not Boost. Only went to Tweeks so I knew I would get the right one with spec I wanted, as yuo can have different colours, speed, rev counter, options etc...

Was about a grand, I can't remember exact amount

Took about 3 weeks to come. Not that easy to fit, was a lot of messing about, plus you need to put lights in your dash to replace indicators, headlights, engine management light etc....

Quality bit of kit though. You deffo get what you pay for! The sensors are top quality, infact it all is
