Supra Gaz Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Can these guys do any type of design, or does it have to be the lambo type people have so far? I like that they can have several different colours on the dials, but i would want something a bit more subtle with just a logo in colour....

scotty_1987 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Best bet is to give them an email, and describe what you want, they can do most things to be honest,and they are very helpful. They made my two 60mm gauge ones from a scan, and am talking with them to get all the heater ones done, in the same orange and white colour scheme.

Matt H Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Love the matching speedo / defi gauges. Nice touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorglub Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 about the needle of the cluster only way having them bright enough is adding a specific illumination under each of them like that: http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/3072/p1000986redimensionner.jpg http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/5876/p1000987redimensionner.jpg here top brightness but i always add a varaible resistor so you can adjust this brightness separately from the back light of cluster result on my car, every gauge match other one in brightness http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/1459/p1010216redimensionner.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbryant_knight Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Just ordered some of these from MoMan in poland. The guys say they can make me some with 180kph on the outer track and MPH on the inner track which is what i've been wanting for ages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How hard are these to fit? Do you solder them on to the power supply from the back of the cluster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokoro Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 So after some faffing and the fitting of a converter/delimiter (not to mention getting the speedo to work properly), I finally have my new custom purple dials fitted. I cannot thank Moman enough for all their help, especially as I was quite particular about the exact colour and design I wanted. Unlit before fitting: At night (the camera washes out the other colours a little, but I'll think you agree the purple is awesome): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 They look great! Moman sure are the man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra Gaz Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Loking good, mine are on the way, completely custom, a little bit more subtle. I will post up pics when all done. Are these like the speedhut ones to fit? I have some of those in at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokoro Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 No ideas what the others fit like, but with these you insulate the little stabiliser with tape and attach the pos and neg. We spliced into the cigarette lighter bulb. Pos to the yellow/green and neg to the white/green. This way the dials come on with the lights and the dimmer works on the dials too.
