Did you just give it to a spray painter with the colour code and they did it?If so any idea what the colour code is? oh it may be different between BA and BF too?

I gave them the panel the tripod replaces and they matched it to that. He told me they had to paint the base colour and then dust the silver over the top. I think it came up great!

I got a dud! haha Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/37299-autogauge-gauges-fitted-to-tripod/page/2/#findComment-565185 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(do these gauges have the issue with the dimmer and negative line dimming)?

They won't work properly hooked up to a variable voltage.
