Has anyone ever fitted different dials into a 90/110/ pre-puma dash? I was thinking speedo, Rev counter, combined fuel/temp gauge. But what about all the dash lights? Obviously unless you are running a military Rover with 24v system, you can loose a few of the lights, but for the ones you need is there an option for including them?
Just curious about peoples thoughts on different non-Human dashes.

They are all standard-sized round gauges, so swap them out from whichever manufacturer you prefer. Top row of 3 are 2" gauges, not sure about the speedo. We fitted a combined oil pressure/coolant temp gauge into a TD5 which looked pretty smart as it had a retro Land Rover emblem on it. That, plus a suitable rev counter and fuel gauge would look smart.

Not so easy to change the light cluster but I don't think they look bad personally.

I use Durite gauges but the original speedo, not bothered trying to change the warning lights.

You can replace the white bulbs in the Durite gauges with green LEDs - it matches the green of the original dials quite nicely, and it's another bulb that isn't going to fail.

I went the other way, it was the clear white light of the Durite gauges that convinced me to remove the green filter from the speedo and use white LED's instead. Much clearer.
