Dials for my dashboard.

[ZetecVan 2.0]

I'm thinking about fitting a custom dashboard to the van. I'm torn between three options.

 

Cortina Gauges

 

New 'after market' gauges.

 

Digital gauges.

 

 

What do you all reckon?

[antz]

cortina but i still not entirely fond on them

[Wessie]

autometer guages with a silver rim, against a carbon fibre dash section, its the sex

[young un]

The electonic ones - and who makes them?

[Fiesta Steve]

Digital

I found them here: http://www.zigsstreetrods.com/Pages/gau ... FordTrucks

 

The picture is a '53 P100 pickup dash which is the same shape as the anglias. Some of the dashboards on that page are very sexy.

 

Wessie? Carbon fiber? It's an anglia van, not a saxo.

Digital, pimp as fook!

Cortina then make me some for mine

[Jay_harrier]

Or really high tech.....

 

 

Got one of these or similar heading into my MK2 at some point

As the digital ones are for a 53/55 American Ford pick up are they the same width as an Anglias binacle?

Can't afford that! There are quite a lot of aftermarket all in one jobbies that are really for motorbikes, but they all look cheap.

I don't think they are. There's another company that supply a billet aluminium dash.

 

The company that do the digital ones will build them into a dash if you send them the panel to use.

Digital would be different

Old Skool for me, Cortina gauges.

 

Screw the tardis, I like going back in time by opening the door to my OSF, getting in and absorbing the yesteryear feel to it.

My personal preference is Old Skool but I think it comes down to what sort of overall style you're after.

[pimtina]

Anything but the digitals! They may be expensive, but I think they look cheap. But that's only my opinion.

I have only seen digital gauges in cars that have been done over by shows like overhaulin and I think they look cool but for the van I would go for the cortina clocks as to the average Joe they will probablly think they came as standard where as the people who know a little about cars will appriciate it more if that makes sense A cool subtle change

Cortina is the best in Anglia.
