(Reverse?) EL Gauges

Hey all,
Wondering if it is still possible to get gauges such as the ones in this pic:

For an S4 JDM - km/h required as opposed to m/h

Any help appreciated, I've wanted these forever - haven't seen them on an FC before at all.

Yeah nothing :< just white gauges that look like crap at night

I found some reverse EL's in the US, but that's m/h not km/h unfortunately, and only for an NA

Yeah that's the problem. If you see any in km/h please let me know, I'd love to get my hands on some.

Thanks,
Sean

Ok looks like I may have found what I need

Found a set on bodykit.com that is for the Euro models, it's in MPH but also has km/h in smaller numbers on the inside of the MPH numbers.

Not ideal but it'd work will have to see if they'll ship to Aust.. lol

If anyone does see true km/h ones out there let me know otherwise I'll probably go with these guys

Thanks

Yes misterstyx69 they are, that seems to be the best I'm going to find. I might check with my local Department of Transport and make sure that those are legal so I don't end up getting fined. But they do have the km/h on there. Just smaller.

Will be interesting having PSI for oil pressure instead of BAR though. lol.

Dutch eBay sucks... They fucked up by waiting to long for a Dutch site, so marktplaats.nl (which sucks *** IMO, since it's not safe at all, and I have never gotton a deal to turn out well there) got real big, so after they realised they were to late for their site to become realy big, they just took over markplaats.nl

Not realy useful info for you all, but who cares... Look up German eBay!
