   Long and short i'm after plasma dials.
   Don't want to bother buying one off egay.
   Back in the day quite a few people used to make the dial covers themselfs.
   Anyone still make them?
   After this design
   
   
   
   
   Anyone?

   Just be careful if you make them yourself that the card you use isn`t too thick.I bought a cheap set off ebay & the needles stuck.

   On mk2 the needle lights up, bullb behind the centre.
   
   The logo was the reason I sold them on

   the mk1 dial kits look awful, you are better off with some LED replacement bulbs, makes things brighter and better. its a shame theres not really a nice standard dash for the mk1 that fits from another model (or is there?)

    Do the black faced jaeger clocks from an early 106 gti fit? Seems to be a similar design on the needles etc
