LOL Gauges
 
After a friend sent me a message showing the Volvo gauges that have been floating around the internet, I decided to create some for a friend's RX while he was away on his honeymoon. I did reuse the layout from the found Volvo set for the speedo and tach, but grabbed the high res versions of the faces and recreated most of them. I have the psd saved.

All gauges are fully functional still and any important markings are spot on. They do not back light obviously, but I'm not worried about that as the cluster back lights are burnt/shorted out and also because of the car it's for... see below.

Here is his original thread showcasing the ratty goodness: Totally Stumped on this Cooling System Issue

The car looks like a turd, but it is extremely fun to drive. You can't help but laugh as you drive and receive all sorts of disgusting looks from other drivers. The shell was saved from the crusher (almost totaled by ins), the headlight lids are from rolled and burnt cars, rusty fender from a junkyard car that was destroyed by salt, bumpers from who knows where, and front volvo lip held on by a few zip ties. It has a rebuilt motor, coilovers, HUGE straight front anti sway bar like those from a race car, and a 929 brake booster and master swap. This car is mechanically sound, but visually displeasing to most people.
