Aza13 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2008 Was just wondering if anyone here has used these or similar glow gauges for their E30? Any problems encountered/easy install? Any tips or comments would be appreciated. Link Cheers, Aza Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nz320i 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2008 man those are cheap i got silver ones which were $180 from auto passion! easy to install take needles off and over-lay, just take original main dash bulbs out. The vacuum gauge needle was hard, just take your time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then might consider ordering some from auto passion as still abit wary of those ones on ebay. Cheers, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nz320i 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) Auto passion? Shop in CHCH. And there were white ones on trademe a while back? I should sell you mine, hardly drive the car now, quite like the blue at night though. They also have a switch for green and a dimmer, but I don't use this. Red ones to match would be sweeet!

Mark 178 Report post Posted July 14, 2008 The American ones still have the KPH markings in between the MPH ones.... That's the proper German OEM way anyway.... won't make any difference at warrant time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea i've been looking at another E30 and it is infact red so would really have liked some to glow red to match original gauge colours aswell as the car. If anyone finds any that glow red let us know!! Cheers, Aza Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got in contact with Autopassion and unfortunately they don't stock them for E30's anymore So If anyone knows of anywhere else to get any coloured (pref red) AM gauges let me know.
