Yes, the white you see is actually silver, just looks white from the lighting in our photo room.

Here's a video of it installed that better represents the color.

Your photographer needed some black drapes or something... maybe never learned how to shoot silver? It's a pain. That and wine glasses.

Looks really nice though, and the install vids always show stuff so well.

Sorry, its been a while. We can definitely make a small batch of km/h & celsius if someone can put together a group buy. Lets start with 5, but the more we can get the more affordable it will be for everyone.

Anyways, here's some brain food

Meanwhile how about making "redline" tunable? As in small sector that can be glued at different positions, according to what redline is set in tune?

That is like something they have on the E92 M3 gauge, you'll have to dremel out spaces and wire and install an entire motor unit and whatever else needed to make it work! Unfortunately thats not realistic for the many of us.

Instrument cluster is just flat piece of plastic, painted to show values to some gauges or to color some warning light pics. I see nothing unrealistic in small piece of plastic that could be glued on at specific place on this cluster (that pink range of rpms pre redline) more or less clockwise as user may wish, for "adjustment". Or even have underside of it like tape, to unstick/rellocate in future too, if such need arises. Imho difficulty to mod this way would be on par to taping yellow or red tape to mark steering wheel's centerline. Of course, actually mounting that cluster will take more of effort, but that effort is needed anyway. So why not for vendor to include that mini extra piece for extra flexibility?

Any chance of doing any of these with a 7600rpm redline?
