Karl Cordwell had a few sets made up. I doubt that he has any more. Think he was the North Yorkshire RO at some point.

Here is his email address : karl@mcord.fsnet.co.uk

I have a set fitted to the 450 but as Rev says I think Karl has given up producing them.

My only suggestion would be to try some of the American Boat Instrument manufacturers such as Livorsi or Gaffrig

No idea if they will have something to fit but they do a wide range of colours and sizes.

Hope that helps

He gave up making them a long time ago, they was ali not chrome. I bought his last set a few years back. I tired to find some general ones without a lot of luck.
I was speaking to a guy with a S, who wants some, for his S.
So was thinking now I have a workshop and Lathe, I may try and make some, so watch this space.

Maybe worth a call to Speedy Cables. As they refurb clocks etc I suspect they may have some on the shelf. Cheers Steve

I tried to get some of those, Think Richard got them from Karl and as far as im aware both have stopped making/stocking them because of the cost, my cheap fix was to take each clock out of the dash and file the hole out of the veneer so I could fit the clock on the outside, did the same with the center console too.
Heres the link for a thread on the subject from a while back -

Heres my dash if you want the cheap alternative

Karl was the one who had them produced and I have had 2 sets from him
for my 350i then for my current 400SE

He was joint RO for West Yorkshire TVRCC (before me)

I will have a word and see where he got them done
and see if it is worth getting some more produced

Cheers
Richard

PS I am sure that email address for Karl is wrong Alan
