I want to keep an eye on my engine and the only thing I have is a tachometer (Their's not even a tripometer attached to it)

Ideally it'd be nice if it were chrome to match the tach but i'm not fussed really, think it'd look out of place using a standard unit. loads of space to mount something

Hi

There are various ones, but the chances of getting one to match are slim. Check through the M&P, MPS and Demon Tweeks catalogues.

All the best

Fairly sure I saw these flicking through the M&P catalogue (the paper one, not the website) just the other day.

You might want to search their website therefore.

anyone ever used one off a car? How do oil and temp guages even work? I dunno if it'd be that hard as they both use 12v for the power, wouldn't it just be a matter of using the right connector or is their more to it?

These that are made for cars I can get cheap

I can't seem to find anything on M&P's website, i'll have to try get hold of their catalogue https://www.mandp.co.uk

Might be worth looking out for a custom model being broken and haveing the clocks, should suit what your aiming for..

Theres loads of clocks out there, m&p, busters, that sorto of thing... i think its geitting the right ratio from the front wheel (17inches?) to make it read correctly, even then they aren't exactly 100%
