Clever Mr Bean.

Tis me. They are my own designs from wallpapers ive found on the net and the templates have been scanned from my own car and an EB cluster from the wreckers and has taken me hours, days on the computer to do. Missus not happy.

Profit is minimal, when you looking at $4 per A4 page for EF dials, then double that for the EB dials cause of all the extra gauges.

Ive found something im relatively good at and have alot of bills to pay, so good luck to me.
have you sampled any for the eb ghia cluster

Because the cluster lights wont shine through.

The bloke at the printing shop reckons because its done with his $30,000 laser printer ( :shock: ) the ink quality will last ten times longer than inkjet prints and will be more resistant to colour fading.

It most certainly isnt a do once only mod, while im not sure how long it keeps looking new, for the price and ease of fitment is defintely worth doing.

on a EA-ED they will look at my cluster i used Kodak photo paper and an Brother DCP130C ink jet printer, and i did a blue cluster using the same photo paper and it lit up ok, but i didn’t glue the new backing to the original ones i removed them and used the new ones on there own.

I know with mine I did prints, one of what you'll see and the other one was just plain black with white where I want the light to shine through, looks alright, just on plain paper with an inkjet printer, redoing them on Matte photographic paper and going to cut the white parts out this time for better light penetration
