[monster_mini]

hi, nice prodject

did i read you put red leds in your clocks,

if so what does it look like

where about did you get them from and can you get them in different colours

thanks nick

Looks good. Are you bumpers painted black or did you buy them black somewhere?

For your dash, thought about a full wooden dash? Not sure what you would do with the tacho though..

For some more ideas, there is a "dashboard directory" thread in the styling section, might give you a few ideas.

keep up the work, James
