    i was just wondering if would be posible to scan my oem gauges (black) and change the color to a white one.
    then i would need to find the right font to imitate the sport or AMG gauges, or find a pic and copy paste; print it in hi quality photo paper, and attach it to my oem gauges.
    has anyone tried it?
    is that posible?
    thankx, bye

    if i ever finish it i´ll mail it to you, no problem. but i need the corrent font of the numbers (20-40-60) to imitate the amg and sport gauges.
    i haven´t found a pic on the internet with the quality enough to copy paste the numbers, so i need to type it. and i haven´t found the right font yet.
    if anybody has the name of the font, or the amg/sport gauges and is able to take a hi res picture to them, it woould be fantastic!
    thankx a lot
    bye

    That is also what I am trying to figure out. I haven't tried yet, but I was thinking that the dealership would sell just the needles. Will find out soon.....

    My question is, would the sport white needles work with the original black gauges?
