Do you have a link to images and/or a distributor?
What colors are available?
I don't have any but might consider, depending on color.
TIA!

I emailed them about 3 months ago.
But they didn't have pricing yet.
They are available now. Not sure on the price.
But I am wondering how hard the install process is.
I don't think that it would be that easy.

How mch are they?

Someone posted a while back about changing the dash LED's to blue from the orange and detailed the work it takes to open up the speedo and tach. From reading that it wouldn't be an easy task to change the gauge faces. I do like them, and thought about doing a custom one, but the work to open them up is stopping me right now.

The install process for the Mini gauge faces is a pain - just like any other gauge face install - removing needles and re-setting the exactly where you left off. There is a skill and a way on how to do this.

Plus they are only in KPH as we speak - hopefully MPH will be available in the near future.

Now that wasn't asked for. :???:

Only reason Kph sucks here is because the signs don't match. Otherwise Metric is a better idea.

See http://www.gut-mini.com/03new.html
Pick your color. Each is about 20,000 yen.

I've had the red ones on order from CTD (you can getthem ther too) for about 6 weeks now. They still haven't come in although the gentleman from Hannover says he is contatcing the manufacturer. I do hope they are sweet when they come in ad I will post Pics of what I do to get them in

Very cool! I like the black ones!

What do you folks think, would the black ones look decent on my alloy patina dash with the EB trim:
