Re: White Tachometer Face

Dials arrived this morning. First thing I notice is that the dial faces are opaque but the numerals and lines are translucent so that they light up when lit from behind.
Any sticker applied on top will look okay during daytime but at night it won't work like standard. i.e you won't have a visible speedo
Though there might be a very fiddly way round it by crafting a new placcy dial plate out of something like http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2mm-4748-Gree ... 19e38f829e or clear with a coloured vinyl layer on the back then laying on the front a white vinyl with the numerals etc cut out. All very labour intensive.
