Smiths to Speedhut?
One of my small Smiths gauges has failed, I only want to replace the one gauge if it’s a good match, I am wondering how well the Speedhut matches up to the Smiths, will it be very noticeable or blend in with the Smiths, I am looking at either the Legacy Chrome or the Chrome smoothie bezels. Speedhut bezels seem to stand out farther from the dash face.

Check out Nisonger.com. They have all of the replacement Smiths gauges for our cars.

Speedhut gauges mixed with Smiths Cobra gauges will stand out as different (IMO).
I've bought Smiths gauges from Nisonger and also from the Smiths manufacturer, Caerbont, in Wales (UK). Nisonger are good to deal with; Caerbont are fantastic to deal with. Cheers! Glen |
Speedhut gauges are similar in style to Smiths. I converted to all Speedhut gauges, and they look good as a group. But...the ticking is different and the bezel is larger on the Speedhut.
Speedhut placed the Smiths name on my gauges, and I paid $10 per gauge for them to eliminate the Speedhut name at the 6 o'clock position. I don't think they will eliminate their name now. You likely won't be satisfied by mixing the two brands. The photo quality is only fair because of the limiting small resolution on this site. I see you're in Baltimore. I'm in Bel Air. http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...ictureid=20830 http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...ictureid=20831 http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...ictureid=20832 |
