Hi

Hope everybody has had a good christmas.

Just a quick thing I have an autometer boost gauge in my ibiza on a pillar mount and it lights up a different colour to the dash. My question is about the boost gauge, has anyone got a gauge which matches the dashboard of the cupra (white backing with red dials)if so where did you get it?

Thanks

Have a happy New Year

The autometer gauges come with little rubber covers that go over the bulb for different colours, id have a word with the place you got it from, see if they can get any for you.

Yeh those little jonny things;) they seem to give it more of an amber glow than red so i just died my buld with red stain. It gave it the a much deeper red which matches the dash alot better plus it only cost 50p for the bottle:D

I'm using red LEDs. 100% identical to the dials.
