Always do...eventually.

Hey, check it out, 1200th post!

 

interesting thread....

I'll have to remember this one :thumbup:

what did you use for the ghetto color layer? :chuckles:

 

Inkjet transparencies from Office Depot.

The black layer had to be printed on a larger scale printer at a printing company due to its size.

 

so you pretty much did a graphic on the comp and printed it out for the color?

I've always loved the night time effect of reverse indiglo gauges, but after having a set of silver-faces in my last car ('90 accord), I decided not to invest in them with my current ride...

how do you think it would look using everything other than the led's? I had no idea they'd appear so blotchy.

 

*achoo*

 

wow. If the needles worked, I'd like that idea

 

That was a problem with the Mk.1 prototype, because at that point I was using eBay indiglos as a backlight, making the whole contraption too thick. Now that's I'm free of the constraints of the indiglos, the needles work.

 

hmmm, makes me want to go to the southside tomorrow and pic up a second cluster.....
