R53 Speedo/Tech glass

Does anyone out there sell only the glass for the navigation set up where the speedo and tech are together? My glass has some spots in it or anyway to get the spots out with out scratching it more. Any polisher out there for plastic?

I'm pretty sure you could just use a kit for cleaning up a headlight. I am not an expert though

I once saw on nam that someone of the vendors was selling a set of glass that reduced the glare on tach and spedo. Don't remember who it was but you might look on the big volume vendors sites or possibly google Glass for mini spedo tach.

Anti-reflection coated speedo or tach are available:

Is this the one for yours?

Posted too late. Those are the ones, unfortunately people aren't having much luck with FES Auto.


+1 on possibly polishing the spots out. Way has some listed on his site for non NAV here: http://www.waymotorworks.com/invisil...peedo-kit.html

I don't see it on his site, but the 2 lens version for NAV was cheaper because the lenses were smaller. Maybe he still has some in stock.

Do not buy anything from FES Auto. I bought Ian Cull's module from them in September and ended up having to charge-back my credit card over a month later because they never processed my order, nor did they respond to any of my emails or calls in between.

After reading the above, I'm almost sorry for posting the link.
I got these around 2008 directly from Richard Woo before the
marketing went to FES. Price went up too since then.
