Image of the clocks looks different to the zs, so would be good to see what they look like now you've fitted them....

andys1981 28-06-10 03:04 AM

R1CSO 28-06-10 06:51 AM

ok, got 3 pics.....day, dusk and night. the night time pic is a bit ***** cuz it glows a gorgeous vivid blue, but comes out white on the pic!? Can see a bit of the blue in the dusk pic. Anyways, with this glowing and my 7" DVD screen out, i feel like im in a Granturismo PS3 game driving through the streets of China lol

Day.

Impressive, quite like that.

ljr09 29-06-10 01:37 PM

Very nice, how long did they take to fit ?

Tony10 29-06-10 02:20 PM

What model of ZS do you have. Diesel? The rev counter doesnt go high enough for a 180!

But very nice I do like it!

His is a 180.

Yes it does, maximum power tends to peak around 6550, mine was 6533. Rev limiter comes in around 6700 iirc. No need to reach it as it drops off before the limit.

I'm tempted to do this myself :) but I think I'll get some golf (?) needles as well as they glow blue :D

these guys are a bit more expensive but will custom make the dials to any spec you want, im getting some when i eventually decide on a style

the ones of the bay do look cool though, any issues in fitting them?

I've asked Skewer a few times for dials... He's never replied... I thought he'd given it up.

If he is still doing it then I'll try again, but not good business practice to ignore clients!

no probs fitting them. got a little brightness controller, which i fitted in the little pocket to the right of the steering wheel (where the fuses are), and this can make it change to quite a nice Green colour!
