Gauge Clusters

[MagicianElectrician]

Looking at this one makes my right foot feel heavy

 

[OnwardGuinevere]

Oh ok right on. You got that mechanical mileage counter. The only cluster I've ever messed with that had that was my '01 Saturn SC2 (did a indiglo gauge face overlay). My '05 Tahoe is digital mileage

Yep. Mechanical mileage and trip counter . All the original dash lights actually work. Gotta love that 90s green incandescents

Well hey, to each his own. I'm a red, white, and blue man. And black

 

[OnwardGuinevere]

Well, to each his own. It's not my flavor. I like red, white, and blue (or indigo)

Yea. I would love to get a modern green, white, maybe orange in it. Something unique.

Oh ok. I got a theme you might like then. I'll post it tomorrow when I get back.

Can you do a 2015 silverado or 2020 f450 in tenth scale?

I've never attempted a gauge cluster for an RC vehicle. You mean to make a lighted cluster from scratch, or be given one to modify?

I kinda wanna do this to my '95 blazer

 

[MagicianElectrician]

'95 Blazer huh? I've never messed with those before, but I've definitely worked on my '02 and '05 Tahoe gauges. I'm more of a Chevy guy

That is minty! Neat.
I don't necessarily want to retain my 90s green on mine, but after looking at the wiring diagram for the dash...it will be a chore to change mine up

Blazer IS a Chevy!

Yes sir! I just meant I've never had a Blazer to mess with, but I wouldn't mind. Get that under my belt lol
