Default NEW!!! SPORTS DIALS - A completely new design

NEW CUSTOM SPORTS DIALS FOR 75's/ZT's ! ALSO AVAILABLE IN CARBON STYLE BACKGROUND!

I've finally completed working on these completely new Sports Dials for the Rover 75/MG ZT! Have been working on these for some time now and finally finished designing and testing them. Something new and completely different, a more modern look for your instrument cluster with all four needles starting in the pointing down position like on many new cars such as Audi's and Mercedes

I'm now able to do carbon dials with a carbon effect background on the dial faces as well. I can do this on any of the dial designs I offer

Here's pics of two sets of these sports dial, one set in black with bright white LED lighting, and a second set with a carbon effect background and bright blue LED lighting

These dials are £30 and the aftermarket light up needles are £30

Black dials with white LEDs:









Carbon Effect Dials with Blue LEDs:

Great Mod...
I presume that these dials are intended for 'Self-Fit' - if so - would you be able to supply Carbon Effect Dials with Blue LEDs, with MG ZTT and KM/H Outer and MPH Inner?

Yes you can fit the dials and needles yourself Just the LEDs are not so easy to change yourself, as they are surface mount LEDs. The old ones have to be desoldered and new ones soldered in place. I can change the speedometer to have Km/h on the outside and MPH on the inside

My MG ZTT (petrol) has had Blue lights on the Instrument panel since new, so do I need to fit the LED's that you mention, (won't be a problem though if I have to replace them)?
As far as I see it then it's just the instrument overlays in my preferred style and the a/m needles.
Can you take payment by PayPal?
