My one off custom Gauges-


Heya all,

Decided to try my hand at gauges for the Mustang- Lemme know what you think~





Projection transparency, laser jet printer, 5 mil clear plastic, and a laminator.
Flat bed scanner, Photoshop, and Google.

Love that the SVT part lights up. Are your reading positions pretty much carbon copy of the stockers so the gauges are correct?

Yeah they were plotted in CAD software so I kept the dimensions correct. I started with the stockers, scanned em, then added color, deleted what I didn't like, and added what I wanted. When I had just the transparency printed, I overlaid it on the stock gauges and I gotta tell you- worked out much better then expected.

Total investment: $20
