Has anyone been tempted to design and print their own custom dials? I really fancy white/cream dials to lift the overall blackness of the dashboard. I tried to order some dials from Lockwood, only to be told that they'd recently sold their last set (anyway, I think I may have been mistaken when I ordered. I suspect they may have been 660 dials and I required 1300 dials). So, what's required? My thinking so far is: *Remove old dials and scan them on a flatbed scanner, perhaps including a ruler for scale reference. *Transfer files to a design program like PS Illustrator and modify the existing markings and change the background colour. *Print. I've got a laser printer that will print on sticky backed polyester A4 'paper'. Alternately, it may well print straight onto white plastic card available from model shops. *Cut out, install and drive! The main challenge I see is clear presentation of warning lights. Your thoughts please.
