Gauges.



Cameron's spot on.

Talk to Roger Howard there.

Ring Howard Instruments in Northern Road Heidelberg. They are opposite VDO and are the distributor/supplier of the VDO gauges.

VDO will refer you to him as their man.

Roger made me a set of Smith type gauges. He used VDO units and placed the Smith front on them.

OK - you cannot pick them. You have the luxury of cheap gauges that are all electronic.

I think you may be able to see the gauges on

www.howardinstruments.com.au

He also does a set with Cobra logos on them.

From memory my cost was about $1400 for two big gauges, five small plus the clock and all the wiring/sender units for the gauges.

Cheers

Bernie
