Tickford White gauges that light up blue

josh_hartman · 30-08-2007, 07:27 PM

Ok i heard these are pretty much impossible to find these days but i may have found a guy who can get them. he is asking $220 each but im sure if we get a few sign up we will get cheaper. if anyone can get them cheaper or wants a fascia please leave name and ill send a list of how many people and see what deal we can get. these are for series 2 or 3 clusters

That looks silver. I got a set of these a few months back from Ebay. Fortunate for me I got them for $89, but the next relist saw them go for over $200. They are great and look good at night. Wanted white, but happily settled for Silver.

These do look good at night. Get in for the group buy guys. Just make sure they are genuine and not copies.

So they wont fit series one at all?

josh_hartman · 30-08-2007, 07:48 PM

no the warning lights are different on series one. the picture of the on i posted up is silver but im pretty sure the guy im talking to can get white. ill find out when i get a reply

there is still a guy on ebay does them for about $70

I got a spare blue tickford Fascia with Blue LED's which I'm happy to sell. The LED's don't illuminate the needs that well, so you may need to do something about it.

Those are the cheap aftermarket ones. I've heard bad reports about the quality of those aftermarket ones.

The genuine T-series gauges are a kind of mix of silver & white.

the only thing you can do is remove the blue leds there is no way to get them to work properly in an AU2/3 cluster because of the needle design you need a filter to make the facia light up blue

i noticed in that shot the tickford wings look blue where as on yours mrjucy the logo is black? were they all like that?

josh_hartman · 30-08-2007, 09:40 PM

The ones i can get are genuine

MRJUCY · 30-08-2007, 10:02 PM

It could just be the light catching in his because as far as I know they're all like my T2 except the T1s had different needles & working oil pressure gauge etc & the povopack T3 TE50 just had the blue XR gauges.
The T-series are funny cars tho they made all sorts of bizarre running changes.

josh_hartman · 31-08-2007, 04:59 PM

ok bad news he wont change price for a group buy but for thos people who want one for that price its this guy on ebay Item URL: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....ME:X:RTQ:AU:11

That's a series 1 cluster, you can tell from the needles...

That was the issue i had. One of the reasons I went and bought a genuine fascia and put standard led's back in. I'm sure if I was invloved in an accident at night, insurance would have something to say about it. Better to be safe than sorry. At least now everything illuminates correctly.

Duffman · 01-09-2007, 01:05 PM

They look good at night except they are a little more dull then the stock ones id say probably because of the filter but still are a worthwhile upgrade
