Lockwood Dial Set (white on black)

Hello Folks

I need to get 20 of my friends together so that those good people of Lockwood will do a set of gauges. I have the white on black which in my humble opinion are far easier on the eye than the red on black and more in keeping than the white dials.

I have already fitted the main dash, but my three sisters do not match and it’s setting off my twitch.

Are there 19 Elan owners out there who would like to refresh their dials? MPH is fine, I don’t need the main cluster set, only the sisters so don’t worry about the units in my example photo.

Thanks!

No thanks!

It looks to much like the cheap KIA Elan version gauges which I drove before buying a real Elan.

The red ones have their own caracther altough made by Opel but are indead real Lotus Elan.

Good luck in finding 19 others wanting to change this.

Hi Johan - well whilst you’re not helping the cause there buddy, I’d say people are voting with their feet and agreeing with you. I should have used click bait and posted “OEM door seals, $50 per car!”

I just need a matching set, I’d go red on black in km if I could get one.

Sadly they don’t make them now, if you’ve got a set in your garage please let me know!

The white on black were all I could get, and they’re an improvement over the faded white set that were in there.

Nah... you know what seeing the full set has convinced me, white on black looks way better and I need to find a way to get the sisters to match. Thanks!
