Here's a interior picture I found on the web of an 81-83 Rx-7. I don't remember what site it was...

Does anyone know where I could find a set of these kick butt gauges at?

they are on ebay all of the time. i know that there are sites that have them as well. just don't remember the name of the sites...

1stgen_tn

Yeah, I see them on Ebay for 84-85 7's all the time. Just not for the 81-83 7's. Maybe I just need to look harder?

is that an "S" model you have???

frigidmonkey

the ones on ebay are usually indiglo or reverse indiglo... the ones in the pic are not indiglo, they are a white vinyl that lets the back light come through like the normal gauges. The guy that owns that car makes and sells them. But I can't for the life of me remember the url for his website

Yes! Yes! Yes! Man, that's the happiest I've been in a week! Sad, huh...

I thought I would never find this stuff. Your website rocks! I'll be placing an order soon...

University_seven

gx???? well, the 2 spoke steering wheel signifies an S model. just curious.

University_seven

well other people have been calling her that so you're probably right she's only got 94,445 miles

Hard to tell from the pics, but does it have a center arm rest or just the coin tray? If no arm rest then its a S for sure, as stated earlier the steering wheel denotes an S, the lack of an armrest would confirm it.

y dont u just take u'r 1's out, scan them, change them 2 white, and print of on some good guality paper, U could even insert a graphic. My Bro has a blacklight hidden above his, and they glow blue when it's on. Just an idea.

white guages does make it look alot more modern also.

MarkPerez

I don't know if Jose has updated the guage faces in favor of more indigo type. that is still white faced.
they are not back-lit, so they aren't to bright at night.
i bought a set the minute jose started to sell the over-lays. the only place to buy white face 140 mph 80-83
1st gen guage faces at a reasonable price, i might add.
i love'em, and have had them for a couple of years now.
Jose, here's some feedback for you... mine have faded,
the reds,yellow, green. the black is still going.. how about a discount on the latest, for return customers ??

bah why be modern its an old car.. you need louvers and a bra. sweet!

MarkPerez

poor picture.

Captain Lou

i have read at least 50% of the folks on here that have put teh white guages in have problems getting the instrument needles to sit and be accurate afterwards

maybe theres a foolproff tutorial but from what i have read its a big finicky job?

please feel free to correct me

I'm with 81Rex6port13b!!

Why make an old car look modern. Too me it loses some appeal when you do that.

MarkPerez

It could get out of hand,,i guess. it's important when installing the over-lays to keep your hands very clean.

i have the white ones from rotaryrx7.com
they were pretty easy
