Re: Rev counter dash
Like this?

(clicky pic for blind-o-vision view)
Compare trabitom99's pics of the km/h versions of the VDO and Smiths with economy and ambient gauges:
Smiths: (rev counter to 8000 rpm
square warning lamps)

VDO (round warning lamps, red marks on the rev counter, different font):

Not sure what the fuel tank sender and temp senders are like for the Smiths set. I've got a temp sender that matches the Smiths clocks, but not a fuel sender (if it's different, don't know if it is or not).

No need to apologise. It's just when I first saw the post it was missing the finer detailsjon-ovlov wrote:The very bottom one is the one I want/need. Cheers mac. Its VDO then, sorry.
(pics always FTW
Some folks fit the Smiths panel in a later car as they prefer the 8K rev counter.

And Mac, should have posted a pic first. Ah well, do you have one I could grab off you?
