only sent it to people who asked for it or with 2 left hands.
did the conversion yesterday myself (lack of time) and everything is OK. no problems with the reading. turned the needle back to 0 after tightening the fixing screw.

Yes, very straightforward job to do. Even without the manual. Works fine and looks great. Finished mine today. Thanks Rens (goed gedaan jochie!!)

Rens, fitted mine today WITH the manual (very nice piece of work, the dial and the manual that is!)
goed gedaan jochie (I have no idea what that means but I'm assuming positive!)
Many thanks

p.s. I went to
http://www.actua-stage-pilotage.fr/index.html
on sunday and test-drove an Aston, Lambo and Fezza around a circuit (birthday prezzie from g/f)
The Aston was heavy...heavy... The Lambo a bit out of step and crappy flappy gearbox, lurching all the time, the Fezza was quite good I have to say, but for the price performance all round wasn't really any bette than the Tuscan (which was the best ride back to Geneva), especially when u consider the price. And I think it had more photos taken in the carpark than the circuit cars hehe Big pat on all our backs - affirms we have the best IMO!

no pics yet, but together with a new LCD (no lines anymore!) which cost me more time to install than the @#$%^&* hour some guys predicted, the new km/h dash was ready this morning to roll! Beautiful weather, roof stowed away. Rens, now it's easy to brake and adjust to the right speed when you see the cameras: just look at the needle instead of the right hand corner of one of the POD screens!
Great job, done.

Hi,
I'm Helmut from Germany and owner of a TVR Tuscan MK1.
I found your information about a speedo-plate for this car today. My question, is it to late to ask for a plate in gold with KM/h? If you have a chance to get this plate, how much is it?

Thank you for your understanding and help.

Kind regards
Helmut

I just got off the phone with Rens to discuss the manufacturing of another batch of these dials. We agreed that I would take the lead. Colour can be either silver or gold and the price will be between 100 and 120 euro, depending on the nr of people who would be interested to buy one. If we can get to 10 dial plates prior to the end of November, then you can have your new km p/h dial under the X-mas tree.

Please send me an e-mail via Pistonheads if you are seriously interested!

(edited to adjust a minor error)

Looks like we have a little overlap in producing them plates, I just agreed with a couple of guys who contacted me for plates to have some more manufactured, both in gold and silver at 85 Euro's per plate plus shipping. I expect them to be ready before christmas. If any body is interested to join in just contact me through this or in the german TVR forum.

How difficult/expensive is it to have these made as one-off later on? I'm hoping/planning to be a Tuscan owner in 4-6 years so just wondering if I should start sourcing parts already :-)
