Sierra clocks photos

Hi All,

Looking for inspiration on using the sierra clocks and making them look o.k. Can't afford flashy clocks, so anyone got some photos of using standard/modified sierra clocks..

Cheers

Dan

Not Sierra but Granada. Very similar. (same pod I believe).

Basically I removed the perspex front, cut it down almost flush (room for needles to move plus a bit). then used the mounting in reverse to mount onto back of dash and fit new perspex and alli surround to front.





Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Most instrument clusters like that use simple printed circuit boards. Meaning if you can solder, you can cut the gauges out and move them around as you like. Connect the wires you cut with some copper wire. Takes a little thinking, but you can end up with a nice setup for nothing. Even nicer if you get a decal made up for the backgrounds.
