Thanks Stewart, I think I'll leave the indicators until after the IVA, I bought some fiat 500 (original one) side indicators which I've managed to get some 21W bulbs for which will hopefully look good if they fit ok.

If anyone is thinking of using the same dash gauge the this is the wiring I used to get it working, this is for a Mk 2.5: The wiring I used for the savage switches was as below, by using different resistors you can adjust the brightness when the lights are on but they will light at full brightness when the switch is turned on: upload pictures to website

Probably the wettest day for the last 8 weeks, still at least I know my skin is waterproof.

Congrats !!
Bit jealous, probably 8 months away from even thinking about booking. Would like to get it to Stoneleigh in 2018.
Good motivation to keep us other builders going.

Looks very smart and tidy.. Like your choice of gas filler location and lay out of dash gauges..

Hi Steve, hope you got some dry days to enjoy the car, not been so many this year up north.
Q. How do you find the Speedo readout, quite small on the Pro Led and just concerned that it is legible while driving about in an open top car.
Going to finally purchase my gauges at the Classis Car show in November.

Hi, The Speedo reading is fine easy to read in strong sun or at night, it took a while to set up but I booked an MOT before the IVA (which gave me a chance to adjust the speedo) and it over read by about 10% so just what I wanted.

Thanks Steve, I like the clean look, just wanted to check the useability in actual use. The adjustable speedo function is also ideal as I am running larger wheel diameter than standard.
That helps tick off anothe decision, just need to save some pennies or ask Santa really nicely.

Hi Steve, Firstly, congrats on a very nice build. Certainly a lovely example of the Replicar. With respect to wiring and calibrating the speedo, were you able to use the existing MX-5 sensor and wiring or did you have to purchase one of the additional after-market sensors? Andy.
