Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 25, 2005 You guys will love the VDOs.... you'll struggle to take yours off them at night 8) They are the mutts and should have been standard fitment in the Corrado. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted November 25, 2005 We'll love them if we can get them :roll: I had VDO console gauges in my 1st 3 cars, and really fancy having them again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RW1 0 Posted November 26, 2005 If this turns to tears (which I hope not) there are two 52mm separate gauges that VDO do with the exact same style of night time illumination. An I have a design for using them in the ashtray location. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corradophil 3 Posted November 30, 2005 Ok, a little update on things so far. I have ordered one set for myself, which I have been told should arrive on Friday this week, but knowing how these things go I wouldn't be suprised if they take longer. If they manage to get mine, I'll enquire as to how many more they can get, and post the outcome here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taggart 0 Posted November 30, 2005 How much were they? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted November 30, 2005 I was quoted about £140, I was meant to go to see the bloke one lunch time last week to order them and pay, but he went for lunch and came back late so I didn't see him. He phoned me and apologised and ordered them without payment, I will be trying to negotiate a cheaper price on collection. :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
