Are they available?

Don't really like the navy standard ones!

There are other dials available, but you need to be very careful if you go down the route of removing the needles. However there are dials that have the centre hole cut slightly larger so you basically slip the dial over the needle and it then overlays on the OEM face. Personally woundnt go with white, the NA2 NSX-R carbon look would be the ones to go for.

Hey Sudesh.

I'm not trying to create a true NSX-R replica so I'm just fitting bits that look good to me whilst trying to retain a loosely OE-based theme.

I'm not fussed on the honeycomb dials.

I had a really nice off white cluster in my Evo 9 that I sorely miss (the cluster that is):

I think I remember Mutley and a few others had some after market dials. Might be worth dropping him a pm.

Leigh (kowalski) has a very nice set of white dial but If I remember correctly this was a custom made assembly he had done in Hong Kong. They are definetly not stick over facias and the back lighting has been modified and IMHO looks superb

I'm clearly going to be biaised towards the CF OEM style above ;)

Have a search on ebay as there are a few styles available via Japan, which could be same supplier as Leighs.

Yes, I'm not sure why they changed to blue for the >2002 cars, just something different I suppose.

Hard to beat the original white numerals on black faces with red hands for legibility and fuction :) IMHO the NSX-R combo is a backward step on that front.

Cheers

Only on facelift NSX-R!

pre-facelift NSX-R [like mine] is the best combo. But I'm biased lol

Thanks for the replies and links chaps.

Sudesh - your NA1-R cluster is the best colour combo in my opinion.
Carbon surround, black dials, white lettering and yellow needles. Perfect!

Want it!

Yes that is better than the later NSX-R but I still prefer red hands/needles :)
