My weekend project....

TRWright

I like it, but I would want something a little more silver, and less chrome. Maybe it just looks so shiny from the camera flash, though. Details, please!!

Where did you get them?

Tom M'Guinn

I got them from eBay -- a guy in Germany makes them. They shine more in the photo from the flash. They are not actually chrome -- just polished metal. I have seen others that have more of a brushed aluminum look. I wanted to make it look like my old rx7tt, and these are pretty close. They have to be glued in, which is not that easy. I hope they don't fall off.

Looking good! Eventually I want to get a set, along with the aluminum dash kit and pedals.

Wow, that looks really nice. How much were they?

Tom M'Guinn

He is still selling them: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

You get an evelope with 4 metal rings -- no instructions or means of attachment. Be prepared to get creative with glue. I used super glue gel, flexible Goop, and a multi purpose Scotch glue. Hoping one or more sticks.

Looks nice, I got some but they covered up too much of the dial details on my white faces. They look great.

Olli Snellman

I bought a set from him too. Quality is very good.

Installation is very easy if you are able to remove the clear part of gauge gluster

You ain't got'em no more!

Tom, looks great. I hope to get mine in soon.

Do they help somewhat with reflecting more light onto the gauge face or is this purely cosmetic?

Tom M'Guinn

Purely cosmetic so far as I know.

I've got the same ones, just to brighten up the dash and they look great with the aluminum shift **** insert and chrome extinguisher. I just press fit them since they were pretty tight. I guess I'll just try to avoid potholes and speed bumps.

I glued mine in and after some time and sorry roads in GA, 3 popped off. The finish on the inside of the instrument panel came off with the rings. I cleaned the finish off and carefully scraped off the finish around the openings and re-glued with super glue gel. Have been on ever since.

That German guy gets his ring material from old canisters of Pringle's Chips, and Planters' Peanuts. I returned mine, after realizing I can also do the same.
