I have never seen those dials myself in any member's cars here
There are two types of people on forums; those that give helpful advice, and the others

They look like really early KMCs with Shakey's polished needle cups. Old school.

Yep, Definitely KMC (V3 from memory). I bought a set of these for my first FTO.

    They seem to be rare as chickens teeth. :( At least I now have know who originally made them for a Google search. Even then, I'm going to struggle....

    I'm not a fan of the EL style dials and theses are just plain old dials with the OEM back lighting, albeit replaced with SMD LED's. :)

    I've already got the needle cups and surround, but the brushed version as not a fan of shiny.

    Yeah, you sort of need to find them in a car being parted out. They wouldnt be common. Was certainly a fan of that design myself.

      I think the last time I saw an FTO in a breakers yard was when I picked up the bonnet I currently have attached to the car. Generally, they don't appear local to me. The last time I saw another FTO, was so long ago I can't remember!

      I've been reliably informed that the dials are KMC, but also a copy of an AWD Japan dial:

      Either way, I'm still looking for the clock and volt dials. :(

      I've just ordered a full set of dials off Ebay to get the sizes ... gonna have a go at making custom ones. If it turns out I'm as clever as I think I am :roll: I'll have a go at making these ones for you :D
