Well bit of an update, not an interesting one...
Gauges came today, nothing fancy, but as we all well know saturday is a car day so i had to do something. So i cleaned up the plate and the sensors, put some proper crimp ring connector things on the sensors (they were good ole wrap wire round the terminal before) and cleaned up the gauge faces with some polish and some glass cleaner, tested the temperature one with a candle lighter but the pressure one im not sure yet. Thinking of spending 40/50quid on a big stepper motor one with a warning and all that jazz simply because it is a really important gauge. Temperature is just because im curious. But yeah even pulled out the camera and the tripod for some pictures because im that boring and dull! Enjoy :p

Also just noticed the camera didnt like focusing on the gauges (my bad, should of been in manual not lazy focus) And they also look f*cked, they're not, if you look closely at the face you'll see a stupid looking twat with one eye shut looking into a camera.... Yeah you get it
