Thanks, Kevin

Hi

I have a set now, I'm not up to that stage yet, still playing around too much with Skylines (Daves uni ride).

I have a SPA combined tacho & speedo http://www.spatechnique.com/product_pages/page.cfm?cat=3,  so I'm thinking about an alloy plate to fit where the L bug speedo is now, but dropping the tacho/speedo down so that I can see it around steering wheel and then have the warning lights fitted in the bottom of the alloy plate.

Lee, I was after something a little more high tech.

OK Steve...

You can get little chromed LED lamps that have two colors in them... I have replaced all the bulbs with very bright LEDs

I still haven't connected up the extra lamps in My Tacho as yet

cheers

LEE

Hi

I used to have really nice Hella warning lights in my old 1302, they had a black shade bezel on them and were very solidly made with a aluminium body.

You can just see them in this picture of my old cars dash.
