White gauge faces w/older numerical gauges?
Hey gang,
Thinking of switching to white gauge faces while upgrading to the older numerical oil temp module. I haven't seen any faces that have the numerical markings for that gauge.. anyone else know of a supplier?
Thanks...

I know North hollywood speedo does it, and I really am thinking of doing that to my 78SC... White faced gauges with red LED lighting....

As an afterthought, look in the custom design and custom coloring section... Check out the tach with the voltmeter.. How cool is that??? Anyways, they have everything listed there that you were inquiring about and is a very cool place to look at guages.... Rob

Yeah, I checked out their site..pretty awesome stuff. I don't see any face sets that have the numerical oil temp gauge, though... and I'm scared to even ask what a custom job would cost.
I'll keep everyone posted.
I love the idea of the tach w/voltmeter, always surprised at the lack of electrical monitoring on these things!

I got prices for changing my temp/oil gauge...around $130.00. They wanted $110.00 to convert my speedometer to a 180mph. My aftermarket steering wheel blocked my view from 75mph..on. I bought a older temp/oil, numerical guage ($50.00) and switched the face plates (simple). Unscrew from the back of the gauge and the individual gauge comes out. Two screws holds each face place....fits exactly on the newer gauge. You have to be very careful removing the orange pointer.....
