Yep...I can confirm that both Aussie Mike and cameron02 are correct..ie..must be KLM and the odometer must read to 6 digits.

I just bought some VDO night vision..100mm tach and speedo...50mm mechanical temps (oil & water) electric everything else.

They are white on black faces with a black bezel and are not too different from the smith or SW originals. After rego I'll have a gauge fella change the faces to something more original and the bezels to chrome.

The only problem is the odometer is a digital LCD in a little window on the bottom of the speedo face.....Think I'll put up with that.

I selected VDO because they do work rather well and rumoured to be fairly reliable and accurate.

Whats the use of original looking gauges if they lie.
