who's got one of these Vapor thingys?
Seems a good deal, don't much like the look of it though, and i've already got holes cut in a proper carbon dash (2nd hand, from one of
the racing trucks)
am i missing something? is there any expensive stuff it needs before it'll work?
I'd rather have proper round gauges, but this does the job of many, and cheaper than 1 speedo...

Think it's a good unit & brilliant price, only shortcoming I'm aware of is that it has no fuel gauge. There is a surround for it for
about £25 which has all the warning lights in it.
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

yeah, i'm thinking about it really only for the speedo... my carbon dash already has 5 warning light holes, 2x52mm, & 1x80mm holes cut, plus
a few for switches etc.
is it illuminated? it has to be for SVA doesn't it? says its E marked though...

They look good but my only problem is that my engine for examole will only rev to 6500 so it might look a bit strange when the revs on the vapor go up
to 12000
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Hi i got one,
It has a perm 12v supply from battery which goes off after 20mins i think that lights it up blue, or you can just run it with the self contained
battery in the unit, which then has a very dim back light,
Using also just for speedo only but has a rev counter abd shift light incoparated and temp guage,

How do you set up the correct Miles Per Hour and how is it adjusted?

Mine is a little troublesome, the speedo is accurate enough for the SVA but the rev counter can't keep up with demand and the temperature gauge
needs resetting every trip. I'm not sure I would buy another
