heckler Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 No, not selling the car... I've finally got round to making some PCB's for the dial clusters - its only taken me 24 months or so to finally get round to do it, supradibbs actually got the set that was going to go in my car! In the process, I've decided to change the entire dash colour from blue... to another - blue is soooo last year http://www.internetwork.org.uk/random/pcb.JPG All I need now is my car to fit it too!

heckler Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 (edited) Nice mate would these have helped in my situation? Not that i'm not happy with mine, think they are stunning Yup would have... but these PCB do work really well aftermarket dials... like this, these are my Old Defi Style Dials, now on Ben-san® Car...http://www.internetwork.org.uk/random/pcb2.jpg Only difference between the PCB's used in this one and mine, is colour and I've doubled the number of LED's Edited August 11, 2010 by heckler (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heckler Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 Well, while I wait for the car, I've decided to finally do a dash in which I can cycle through almost any colour you can think of, its also capable of been programmed so it can flash/fade/cycle different colours too... I should have the PCB's done tomorrow.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 (edited) right... when I get round to programming the microcontroller and connect this little circuit... http://www.internetwork.org.uk/random/rgb1.JPG To these PCB's (when finished Obviously...) http://www.internetwork.org.uk/random/rgb2.JPG I'll have dash lighting which can change colour Edited August 18, 2010 by heckler (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Looking good, you are an electrical genius!! I did try and solve the problem of darker patches in your gauge replacements by using different bulbs that scatter the light differently - I put a thread up somewhere - but this is brilliant. Put me down for a set once you start making them, I'm guessing you could have different colours if needed (i.e. red LEDs for the redline and blue everywhere else etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heckler Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 Am in for a set if they'll go on facelift sorry, cant do facelift as the clusters are different to a pre-facelift. Unless somene willing to lend me a facelift cluster for a week or two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
