Hey i want to make my own White face guages for my 89 Camaro. The problem is I cant find any templates with the KPM with the MPH. All I find is just the MPH. Anyone got any ideas.

Do what I did, remove the gages from the car, scan them into the computer, get a vector program like CorelDRAW! and copy / trace them. Print them out on your computer, then take a piece of plexiglas and cut it out to the same shape as your oem Dash IP piece as a reinforcement.

I have the dual-needle white face template. I made them for my car and they look fantastic! They look even better when you change the color of your bulbs, or replace the KPH with Warp 1, Warp 2, etc...(old trek fan, couldn't help it)

Reply and I will e-mail you the templates.

Dual needle? Since I have no idea what that is you might as well send it over. PopaPork@hotmail.com

I printed mine on photo-paper that had an adhesive backing (for making stickers). Then I took every single bulb out and painted them blue with model paint. It looks cool but is "TOO" blue. I may try a lighter color or just paint every other one. Good luck, the white face gauges have been the best looking improvment

Not in 91-92's. Then it shines right through and looks pretty bad, as I found out.

Hey Red T-top,
Can you send me the template for the dual needle? I have Un4givin's white face set, but my speedo is still black and it drives me nuts!

Thanks,
Matt

When I did my guages I also tried to use the fancy photo paper but it eventually started to bubble from the heat and peel. It was really dark at night in my 90 bird. I redid them all in regular paper still it's a little dark for night time driving but I've got the feel for what mph I'm going by needle location. I even threw in a little autometer logo on speed and tach fun listening to friends ask me where I got them at.
