I can understand that using the matched gauges will save money, but if it costs sales then it's not good business. Seeing that - I've taken a couple of steps back from it. What I really do want to see is the sump clearance.....please...... If that's no better, then I'll be staying with my Series 1 for now. _________________________ DaveW Red Roadster

Couldn't measure it but I would say it is probably eaqual or better than the clearance of the plus4 sump. The offset is that the knee clearance is less. The tunnel at the handbrake is wider, probably to accomodate a bigger clutch/bellhousing cheers J

Actually, being 'thin' and short, this aspect doesn't bother me. But if you have calves like a Sumo, it may get sweaty. _________________________ DaveW Red Roadster

Quicksilver Talk Morgan Regular Registered: 25/05/11 Posts: 661 Loc: Hertfordshire, UK	Originally Posted By: numog No warning lights but pushbuttons behind (!!) the wheel... And i´m afraid the two LARGE dials illuminate in a rather jukebox-like whitish-blueish manner ( ), as they are straight off the US-MUSTANG, plus in the lower sections of the speedo there are all the warning lights as in the same section of the rev counter there are the digital toys (who the sake need such DIGITALS in a Trad?? ). @ 1560: "my" dashboard re-design is "brained" already (and, beside others, incorporates a superbe "classic flight" smiths rev counter + oil pressure and -temp gauges (already "in my stock" :)) @ Heinz: new 3,7 is announced at 950 kgs, same (announced) weight as former 3,0´s... @ Shiremog: walnut dashboards always have a glovebox-lid - don´t you worry! Are you using MK for the re-designed dash, Numog ? _________________________ David Roadster 3.7

numog Learner Plates Off! Registered: 09/07/09 Posts: 446 Loc: Germany (Schleswig-Holstein)	Hi "quicksilver", no, i´m doing all such stuff by myself... Several new dashboard-restyles are "ready in my mind"... will await delivery of my car to make my final choice... _________________________ V6 3,7 - "the beauty AND the beast" - in ONE

Quicksilver Talk Morgan Regular Registered: 25/05/11 Posts: 661 Loc: Hertfordshire, UK	Fantastic. Good luck,Numog. I am sure the finished results will look excellent. I look forward to seeing some pictures Hopefully MK will come to the rescue in the future with a dash option for the 3.7. _________________________ David Roadster 3.7
