Hopefully pics of the white clock faces I got from http://tachoscheiben.newtacho.de/trx-85 ... 2b87c68961

you do get a shadow of the speedo / tacho mechanism at night when dials are lit up but looks fine. Can be rectified by fitting LED's above the dials instead of beneath I believe but I haven't bothered

I have some useful tips on FCR tuning - The site won't let me upload a PDF, is there any way I can upload it?

you can link to another location on the net, or convert it to a word document and cut and paste the data and pictures.

Rod from cut graffix has his white faces on ozzy e-bay, better looking than the German ones IMO. Shame I already have the German ones, so can't really justify buying these at the moment.

Any chance of a pic at night with the mechanism showing please? I've got my decals and am trying to decide whether to overlay the originals or not.

Thanks, they are pretty alright. 8)
I'm after a night shot to see how the inner mechanisms print/silhouette thru the clock faces if only the white decals are used rather than overlaid :)

I will try and remember to do a shot tonight, I did try overlaying the original clocks, but was not impressed with the result

please see pic, forgot but couldn't sleep due to kick in the ribs at Karate, so got up and took picture, the effect looks worse on the photo than it actually is

Communicated with Rod and he offers the white faces for $50 shipped to anywhere in AUS, if paid by bank transfer and ordered by email (not fleabay).

Good News.

Rod is happy to offer an exclusive offer to the TRX Forum.

$35 for the clock faces posted to anywhere in AUS (not sure about other parts of the world) if we take the existing faces in km/h or mp/h, as they have his web address printed on the side.
This shouldn't be visible once the gauges are assembled.

$50 for custom gauges without the web address.

Payment has to be made by EFT and not through fleabay
