Purple could be a gradient colour for blue and red

Would the custom option be something that run for a length of time?

Great idea. The illumination would need to be changed to only show through the cut outs and ideally add illuminated needles to.

I designed these made by Metal Monkey. Rear illumination with smd LEDs.

I experimented with blue illumination and red hands on the clock.

Been in my ZTT for a few years now. I forget they ore not OEM.

Custom is the way forward i think. Your own personal dials is a great touch to any car

Anything is possible, I have to make sure the material will carry the light, may experiment for a while...
