Cockpitdesign - 100% Full custom EL Tachos!

Hello everyone,

This is a message from Cockpitdesign, The Netherlands to all you carfreaks. We are

carlovers that make a living out of a hobby.

So what's the deal? Cockpitdesign is a Dutch company that is specialized in making custom

car dial design for many carbrands and cartypes. Cockpitdesign has been busy with this

product for some time now. We make dials in any colour that you wish.

A little while ago, after a lot of experimenting, we started our production on custom

Codeglowz, dials equal to the well-known Indiglo dials, based on EL technology (Electro

Luminescence). The difference is that we offer the possibility to choose your own

colours, design, logos, text, etc. There's no stock, we start producing dials after an

order is placed, so what you get is 100% customized. Check these samples:

With succes we've already sold the first Codeglow sets and we are confident that there's

a huge demand for this in your area. So please visit our website http://www.cockpitdesign.nl .

translated into English, that will be launched very soon. If you have further questions

or remarks, please send us an e-mail: info@cockpitdesign.nl and we're happy to answer

your questions.

Hi JtC, Call us again when you got a rev-counter up to 10.000 rpm

Have you ever dismantled the dash?

Ok, let me ask you this for instance: does it work with LCD? in other words, did you find a glass plated that 's being fed with certain digital input?

I understand, but are the bulbs really coloured or did you find a coloured filter behind the plate? Why I ask you this, in the last case you CAN certainly change the colours by having that filter changed into a total different colourscale... Ok, my fault, so maybe we don't need EL here, but there are different ways to change your dash..

What you mean is that because the blue is to dark, there no much contrast any more in the display. Yes, it depends on the right use of the right colours. We've been doing this stuff too We got the right colours, see... But even with this, I think our EL could be of use. I mean, the EL can be dimmed and we can put any shade of colour that would be nescessary to get the right contrast. At the end, EL still replaces the original bulbs. So I still believe we can help even owners of S2000s BTW, besides the colorchanging we are talking right now, we can also do some nice stuff with the front.

Ok, so a combination between, EL and a different colourfilter might work?

Ok, let me get some sleep now I got some ideas about this. I'll get back to you on this, this is interesting (a challenge) to us, and perhaps to you too Sleep well!
