toyota_ae71 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 with alot of time, hardwork and some money anything can be done mate. I rekon it would look a lil bit out of wack with the ke3x or ke5x gauges in it tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DearmanKE Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 take the clear piss coloured palstic face off your 70 dash n ul love it :y: looks so much better oldr dashes woudlnt suit the modern square style of the 70 haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitoriko Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 yeah saw those gauges but want something different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kryton brown Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Well the KE30 and KE70 dash are the same width, i measured one the other day. I'm not sure how much modification is required.. you would probably just need to get hold of one and have a crack at it. I'm looking at doing something similar to my KE30 but fit a KE70 or T-18 dash.

Instigator Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 As said above remove the yellowy plastic around your instruments and replace with clear perspex. Change bulbs in dash if that's what you want ( I run blue in mine). Take your dash out, take the gauge faces off, either do it yourself or get someone to, scan them, change colours, font, background etc in photoshop, print out and voila new gauges.

hitoriko Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 thanks guys but i don't like that white dial look imo it looks cheap and nasty at least if i can find a ke30 dash i can make it different if you hvae custom dials/dash/gauges pics would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Instigator Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Yeah I've seen those dash inserts and sorry to say they look chat. As does his pressure pack spray job :wink: No offence to the guy, he gets in and has a go, but I'm a bit older and a hell of a lot fussier about what I do to my car. I work in IT so will be making mine up in Photoshop with fonts and markings to make them look exactly the same as my Speco gauges, probably with my plates down the bottom or some other sort of customisation, then printing them on high quality paper.
