Black Fuel/Temp Overlay

kenchan

but digi- you had to do surgery on yours to make it work, no?

i think danalbert's is just a overlay on top of the factory fuel guage? just position and press on.

I would have done Digi & Ron's stuff if I had to, but being a neophyte, when it comes to taking things a part on our cars-NO THANKS! BTW, their's are about 5% better in my opinion, but with A LOT more work!

It's just an overlay Alex made for our cars after he borrowed my faceplate for a few months. Below is a close up shot of the actual overlay from Blackcat Custom applied to the factory faceplate. It uses strong 3M adhesive backing:


The extra work isn't required, but the instructions provided is for the same overlay the OP bought. After the first attempt, you can simply use paint thinner to clean off the paint because the entire face is clear plastic.

Digi, thanks for being the "first in" on this one. Without you, it wouldn't exist.

No problem. I also provided the oil temp and battery gauge faces, but by the time you get access to it you're better off with aftermarket gauges. Below is a mod I did. The gauges light up blue and the needles glow white. I never got to see it in action after modding this for a member.


BTW, with Blackcat Customs you guys can tell Alex to print the overlay in any design, font, color, etc.
