    Wow! Then i sleep, you make in this topic real Hell )
    So, how i understand, my idea with þÅØÀÀ and 300dpi is not work on many computers... :-( Idea with MS Word - is not best way, because it's make small corrections on images I want to help all of us to correctly print my gauges, if it needed - i can reupload gauges in another format with correct dpi.

    Please, write what problem do you have? And how you print my gauges? In that program?

    ok paul first of all you did a really good job on these gauges and they are very much appriciated. anyways. the dpi that they were exported with were 56 dpi (well at least the ones that i got)on the first page you will see that i wrote a mini how-to on how to convert them using a photo program. if you want you could just upload the .tif itself. it only runs about 738 kb.

    First I completly demonted everything, included remove the needles and the plastic plate, the I cleaned the plastic plates completly from paint and everything, then I printed the gauges out on a self-adhesive photopaper. I had already painted the needles red and made lights red.

    Here is the result:


    Here with lights on, ant blitz on the camera...


    And here without blitz:


    A little to strong light, so I think I have to paint the plates behind any just white light infont of them...

    I take this from the start...

    dont do that you just need to use heavier paper. what if you paint them to dark them it will be a bitch to get the paint of without messing the look of the gauges off. just use a heavier paper.

    I don't really understand what you mean, I want to paint the backside of the plate complitly black so it dos not come any light through it... And just have white light shining down to them from the top...

    And isn't it just one type of self-adhesive photopaper?
    What I can do, is maybe to paint it white on the backside and get a little light through...

    the only reason i suggested heavier paper is so the light does not show thru as well on the back of the gauges.

    Ok so for the furl and temp gauges dont take the needles off right? and if I move the needles, by bumping them accidentally they should still work? will they correct themselves or will they have to be put back in the proper space? also does that apply for the 86-87 gauge clusters?

    Do you just put the gauges over the stock ones or do you replace them?

    when i resize the gauges to 3417, and 1200 (at 300 dpi), they don't look right. like, i overlayed a scanned image of my tachy on top of the resized tachy that paul made, the resized one is out of proportion. so are u sure that 3417 and 1200 are teh correct dimensions???
