Ordered a custom job for a speedo from the states. Can't wait to see what it looks like in the car. The one that i will be getting will have mph AND kph on the dial. The km/h will be the smaller face with dark blue writing, which apparently comes up really nice during the night.

The dial face will be silver as well. Apparently can be done in a few colours.




Apparently can completely change the brightness. Anyhow will be intersting to see what it looks like at night. There are quiet a few different ways it can look. Could have added graphics as well, but was going to cost an extra $25.

Cost with shipping to the UK is $US120.00, this is just the dial face, and not the complete cluster as shown in the photos.

Dont think they are for a Monaro Nige. Different dial and dash shape.

Think they also do one for the GTO, can ask if you want. Found them originally on www.custom-house.com.au, there is another manufacturer as well. These guys are the only ones who got back to me.

The ones i have ordered are from www.speedhut.com, if you phone them, they can put the order in with mine. They are $US89 + $32 postage. Apparently they can put a couple in for the $US32. Check out the www.custom-house.com.au for the range. Pretty impressive. Just can't wait for mine to get here. They also do the HSV gauges as far as I can tell. You just need to send them a photo of the dial, they sort out the rest.

Yeah Nige, know what you mean man... Spending more now than when I had a job... got to get a job to stop me spending money like it is going out of fashion!

PS. Get two credit cards.... lots of "free" money for a month until the bill comes in.

The (UK) Monaro has a special place for the KPH and MPH to illuminate, this is not on the Australian set ...........

If you don't mind GTO printed on it you can order the ones for a American GTO.


this is an OEM part so costs lots.... but you could put together a group order and have a UK set made up

Yeah, it sounded like these guys were just going to put it together from scratch, there are where the other lights are, but this one lights has it's own lighting source. Not quiet sure how it all works yet, but will figure it out soon enough when it gets here. Hopefully, won't just have a pretty face I can't do anything with..
