    Green line tach

    I seen a tach on here with a green line on it so i thought that i'd try to make mine like it. It came out fine but it got the angle between the 2.5-4 off. And while i had my cluster out i replaced the gears for the odometer and wired up the light for the rear fog light, so it comes on when i turn on the rear fog light. Although in the picture it looks like a bright ass orange light.

            isn't that a gloss color? It should be more of a matte or satin finish.

              It is gloss but, when it dried it was not that glossy and was kind of flat looking. Which i was glad that it did.

                            Yup, that's it. A green stripe on the tach = Ugly Swedish yuppie car.

                              I like it, actually. A lot. Too lazy to do it myself, and plenty of other projects :)
