Re: NEW batch of New BRIGHT ORANGE OE Dial Replica's now in stock; INC's km/h dial :)

[Big Steve - Raider]

As I discussed on THIS THREAD (http://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?t=9324) a few weeks ago I've been looking into getting some replica OE Dial sets made so all of us who are fed up of looking at those sun bleached LIGHT PINK dials we have in our cars with nice new BRIGHT ORANGE ones :D

Well today I've had a response back from my supplier with an initial proof showing the dial design. Please have a look at the PDF which I've uploaded at the bottom of this post. I've also uploaded a picture graciously supplied by Bill showing a BRAND NEW set of OE dials so you can compare the two.

Because of the manufacturing process there are a couple of little differences which have both been pointed out to me and i have noticed myself and they are:

Their are not as many graduations on both the Turbo Boost Gauge and Rev-counter at the higher boost/RPM areas of the gauge becasue the concern would be that that the markings would not be as clear as the OE ones if they tried to replicate them EXACTLY becasue their would be "bleed" between the graduations.
Below the Jaeger manufacturers mark on the main Speedometer there's not the white Jaeger manufacturers code. I've not spoken to them about this as yet? Is this something which you guys would like on the clocks for the full OE apperance or can you live without it?? Maybe we could slightly alter the code to have some RTOC reference if we want to be cute?! (like RTOC-09) ;)

The guys have already said in their e-mail "Obviously it is not possible to show the colours correctly on the PDF, but on the actual print we will get as close as possible" so don't worry about them looking a bit wishy-washy at the moment.

I'm intending these dials to TOTALY REPLACE the OE dials your car was supplied with so would have to dismantle your dash & remove the old dial covers to ensure the illumination is correct. I'll write a how to for the "Guides" section as & when we get these made for those of you who are concerned about taking your dials apart.

At the moment I'd like the people that WANT TO COMMIT to having a set made to make themselves known on this post & any questions/comments to be raised also so I can get an modifications done PRIOR to commencing manufacture.


I'M AIMING FOR THE PRICE TO BE £35 FOR EACH SET OF DIALS & THEIR WILL BE A MINIMUM PURCHASE OF 20 PEOPLE

Any chance of them printing the zero point ref' dots on each dial as well? Not the end of the world if they can't; just it makes aligning the needle to the correct base point more easier when refitting them.

Either way, I'll have a set please mate.

What I was going to do was take a digital picture of my gauges to see where the zero point was before I started to pull them apart so I can put the needles back to the points on reassembly.

I've noticed that some gauges have different zero points so I don't think their is a standardised set point?

If you look right at the edge of each dial fascia/overlay, there should be a tiny dot - That's ya zero ref' point that the needle should point to when re-fitting.

I can't see that point on the pics of Bill's gauges?? I'll dig another set out i've got in the garage & see if I can find it??

and does it possible this to add have the list? :ashamed:
how does that this master key for the payment and send it for French?:ashamed:

it there ace a date stop to place order? :cool:

there is obviously no concern over copywrite, ie - using the 'jaeger' brand name so im guessing they can use the serial number too? Personally, id prefer exact copies. If the serial number is a problem, then leaving it blank would get my vote.

Agree :agree:, the more exact and original the better.



I did look at mine while driving today and thought

1. Is the black going to match the rest of the parts in the dash
2. I assume the coloured parts behind the fuel light for example are not a problem?.

:ashamed:

Salut Jean,

Si vous désirez ajouter votre nom à cette liste et acheter quelques cadrans en MPH alors s'il vous plaît, mais ne voudriez-vous pas certains faits en km / h pour vous et le reste des gars en Europe??

Pensez-vous que vous pouvez vendre 20 jeux en europe?? Si oui je vais avoir un mot avec le constructeur et voir s'il peut fabriquer une pour vous les gars? ;)


It's a tiny dot. Even Hubble would struggle to find the dot just going from Bill's pictures ;)

If the dot's that small then I think we can all live without it! ;) Just take a picture of the clocks with your pikey digital camera before you remove the needles so you know where to put them back on. You Geezer!

Copyright? Balls to Copyright! :laugh: We're going to the effort of getting these made becasue Renault won't support us so I can't see Jaeger getting the hump! I don't actually know if Jaeger are still going??:confused: I would like to see the lilttle code on the bottom of the dials so shall I just ask them to copy the code that are on the set of dials that they're recreating?


Will they be offering the different fuel guages as I think there are 3 different kinds?

The fuel gauge dial being recreated is the one shown in the PDF document in my initial post. Do people want me to look into getting another version manufactured?? This may push the cost up for all parties?

See Above

It will be the same black on all clocks as they will be printed together. As for matching the dial surround... I guess so?

As for the coloured lights I'm going to ask them the same question next week as i was having the same thought :scratch:

[tonesGTT]

:laugh: i just meant some repro companies may refuse to print brand names for copyright reasons etc . . anyway, if they dont give a fook, they'll surely crack on with the serial number/code too :) as for the number/code itself, was it any different from one car to another - doubtful id guess? Crack on with the one you have.

[Purple_rob]

To elaborate, I mean the side strips for lights/indicators :)

[Hoolio]

Not the greatest pic, but thought this might help (saves having to keep running outside and have a look anyway) only difference being the mentioned code number.

[Mart]

For what it's worth, I'd personally rather have the fuel gauge increments as per Bill's picture, if available/possible.

[Hoolio]

So what's the story with the different style of fuel gauge? Is it different year of manufacture/different plants or what?

[Big Steve - Raider]

For what it's worth, I'd personally rather have the fuel gauge increments as per Bill's picture, if available/possible.


:dearme: Janky Caaaaaaa....... :wasntme:

Ok let me have a look through my old dial collection & see if I've got a fuel gauge with the older design on & get it sent over to the Manufacturer.

[Mart]

:laugh:

As I say mate, only if it's possible. If not, I'll still have a set, a la your pdf file/picture.

merci pour avoir répondu :niceone:

personally, I would be interested by one in MPH !!
thus since should I would like one in MPH (with under inscription in km/h it is well its ??!! ) how I make for the conditions of sale?

for what and of passed through you to have it in km/h, I will wait to have a photograph final of the product: I know in advance that by my CLUB, he will want a reproduction has the identical one !!
thus I will wait to see the product!

will the color be thus like that if ?

Yes the UK dials have MPH & KM/H so you can use them in France & set the correct speed.

I am speaking to the manufacturer to see if they can produce a set in K/MH. They would be an IDENTICAL replica with the correct BRIGHT ORANGE colour ;)

[The new Bill J]

They would be an IDENTICAL replica with the correct BRIGHT ORANGE colour ;)

But they should be more red than orange ;)

Right then Colonel Niblets.... :p

In that case have a look at this colour chart (http://www.ifspowdercoating.co.uk/ral_colour_chart.htm) & pick me a couple of options which you think are the right colours??

That goes for anyone else who wants to contribute so we all get what we want!

I think we're somewhere near "2008 Light Red Orange"

This Colour Chart (http://www.e-paint.co.uk/RAL_Colourchart.asp) is probably a bit better!

I'm in Devon at the mo mate, and I didn't bring my clocks with me :laugh:. If you can wait until next week I'll have a look and see what I can find. But not all monitors are the same, so it might not be right :laugh:

The thing that's popping into my head as being pretty close, is those fluorescent red pens you used to have at school (well I did anyway). Just a couple of shades darker :D

ral 2009 looks very much like ral 2004 does it not?...i cant chose color..
ok with dark colors...:cool:

Put me down for 2 sets please steve ;)

[Woznaldo]

I like a set if you can get the KPH only version as I would need the odometer and trip counter to be in Km to.

Top darts!

Edit: Ignore the odo/trip comment, I was very tired!

Yes the UK dials have MPH & KM/H so you can use them in France & set the correct speed.

I am speaking to the manufacturer to see if they can produce a set in K/MH. They would be an IDENTICAL replica with the correct BRIGHT ORANGE colour ;)


thank you big steave!
thus for me it is OK for one in MPH and km/h at the same time!!
in any event how it is your model English or French, the color will be there even!! not ?!

je vais tacher de mètre d'autre photos des compteur pour avoir une meilleur vision :agree:

UPDATE!!

Had word back from the manufacturer last night and....

The original manufacturing number will be incorporated onto the speedometer dials
The warning areas of the 3 smaller dials will be obscured as in the originals (They showed them as visible so we could see that they had included them)
They will provide us all an alternative fuel gauge at no extra cost!!! :niceone:
I'm still waiting for feedback on if they think they can make a K/PH version as they would have to make that up themselves!!

Once I've agreed the colour with them then we'll be all systems go!! :D

news on the level of this reproduction? ;)

[Big Steve - Raider]

UPDATE!!

Sorry for the delay on this but i've been on Holiday & the Nurburgring etc etc....

Anyway, I've had an e-mail from my supplier today confirming that he has had two special red/orange inks delivered and had printed a test sample of each for me & they're in the post now.

As soon as I recieve them I'll see what i think then post them off to Bill-J for his final rubber stamp then we'll be ready to rock!!

Not long not guys, they'll be worth the wait..... :D

OK guys, another ****UPDATE!!****

Recieved the colour sample swatch from the manufacturer & passed it on to BillJ for approval & in his words the colour match to the original set of dials he's got are "SPOT ON" :niceone:

Therefore i'm just finalising the details now with Clee about getting half the cash to them so we can get a full proof made up for approval then we shall be putting them in the shop!!

Thanks to Clee for his help & support in getting this all sorted! ;)

By the way all.... Theirs only going to be 35 sets of these dials ordered so when their gone... their gone!!!!

Only 35, I realise people like adding their names to lists because they don't like to think they are going to miss out but I suspect these will go almost immediately, do you guys not forsee an ongoing demand for these?

Though as long as I get mine i don't really care;)

37 fella!!!

[clee]

We could get more but bear in mind the RTOC RULE OF 3 :D

[Wallace]

Is it worth getting people to pay in advance???

Then at least you'll know who's serious and who's full of ****e:D

[JRP]

Is it worth getting people to pay in advance???

Potential to loose out on numbers this way.. not everybody has the money to hand, and then may miss out. if left to pay as and when... more will sell especialy with somthing like this.

[Wallace]

Yeah fair enough.................just don't wanna loose out on these bad-boys:laugh:

[clee]

They will all go into the shop and it's first come first served . The club is paying half now to get the production rolling and once we approve the first off we will pay the balance and get them in the shop .
Final price is yet to be set but it works like this .Total cost delivered to me ,then we add 10% and that is the Member price .I then add 25% and that is the list price as seen in the shop to Joe Public ,all + £2.50 p&p .
Members need to use the discount code as listed in the club area . At the minute this gives 20% off but I will put it back up to the original 25% .We were losing out on postage for some stuff but overall upon closer inspection it all evens out .....

[Penfold aka The Dealer]

i seriously want 2 set's!! :)

[jesus in the seat of a 5]

Yeah this is exactly why Clee & I decided to order 35 sets of dials.

How many times have we seen people put their name down on lists for something then when it comes time to stump up the cash people develop short arms & deep pockets! :laugh:

Therefore we've decided to order enough sets to cover the 35 people that initially added their name to the list in the last 6 weeks knowing that some of them will not buy them so we won't be left with loads of dial sets we can't shift?

[Shane P]

When will they be in the shop?

I do get this and made a reference to it in my initial post but as this has the feel of a limited one off offer I can see a scenario that ppl will just snaffle then up leaving some out of luck (obviously the best outcome for the shop) What I was trying to get at is whether there is the option of another run later.

[Mart]

This thread has been running long enough, and it took till only the other day for 35 names to be present on the list. If people are whinging they're not gonna get a chance of buying one, they should've shown more interest from the start.

IMHO, to keep it fair, those first 35 people on the list should be given the link to the purchase page via PM. If after, say, a week they haven't purchased them, then allow everyone access to purchase what's left over on a first come, first served basis.

some of us aint got the time to be on here everyday,even week?
i can understand the points against the guys saying yes but not digging into there pockets when the time comes,that just fooks it up for everyone,but what about the genuine people that are not always online,following every single thread day for day!!
the ones that will pay straight away????
fook knows maybe its just because im not on the list eh???

i never seen the thread until the other day there,i was not aware it was running long
any way its a club so im sure some decent chap will sort something out for the genuine folk

thats my wee gurn over for the day!!!!!!
back to plaster boarding :sad::sad::sad:

[Hoolio]

I'm not whinging, honest. I do know about GB's and have been a victim. As some of you know I do have short arms, they kinda match the short everything else (well not everything) But I also know I always put my money where my mouth is.

[Big Steve - Raider]

Fair comments guys, I'll discuss it with Clee & give the people who have put their names; down first refusal on a set via a PM to a secret link or something in the shop??

Be ASSURED though guys I've seen so many people sign up to lists on this club (like the Nurburgring threads) and then never hear any more from them again when it comes to committing!? :crap: :dearme:

I predict we're going to buy 35 sets & then sell 3/4 of them & then there'll be a few floating round the shop for a few months!! :coffee:

[Mart]

Blue Mack,

I appreciate that, but this thread's been running since end of August. We're now in October, and for the majority of the time the thread has been hovering around the top of the thread lists.

On the flip side, why should the first 35 people potentially miss out on a purchase as well then?

As you say, I'm sure it'll be sorted fairly for the genuine people interested in the dials...

[Duncs]

Condition?

PS, how's my Devil brace? ;)

The dials are decent enough to copy, Jon has them.

[JRP]

This threads funny, it clearly says 35 only.

And in the next couple of hours after that amount was posted people posted there name on the list, it almost as if done just so they could moan.... ohhh dear why bother adding name after 35 unless your the reserve incase sombody does not buy up from that list of 35.

But to then moam about it classic... words escape me

ill be honest guys i never read the thread fully,i did not realise it was only 35 been made

Just like EVERY OTHER shop in the world. If they all sell out and there is demand for more, then more will probably be made, it's not the end of the world :eek:

Not aimed at anyone but there's a lot of conflicting comments (even people conflicting themselves) :laugh:

Feckin wise words.....:agree:...mart , we are not worthy...:worship:

[phase i 16 v turbo]

Why not offer people a chance to pay in advance so you know they are committed? Then it is win win, the club loses no money and the people who have paid in advance get there goods when they are done!

[clee]

When they are listed they are listed and anyone can buy .I could list them now and people that wish to purchase can do so straight away .
Not possible to set a private invitation only page and I've not got the time or inclination to chase up potential buyers .If you want a set then buy a set :p

[Mart]

So what was the point of having a name list then? If it wasn't for those people initially committing to the idea/purchase, then I doubt Steve would've bothered having them made up.

Bit of a kick in the teeth given there's a good possibility that some of the 35 might not get chance to buy their set due to this first come, first served shpiel.

[clee]

It's a RTOC tradition isn't it ?The names list .
Tell you what Mart ,when they come in you can chase everyone up on the list and get them to send the dosh direct to shop@rtoc.org
I will not list them for a week to give people chance to respond .

Rise to the challenge mart....rise......:D

[Mart]

That's cool. The fact you've already posted about doing it that way should be a good enough starting point, but I'll happily put a group PM together for those first 35 names.

If they haven't paid after, say, a week, then the left-over dials are then made available for everyone to buy via the shop.

All we need now is the final price inc' P&P...

[Mart]

Or do you want to wait until you've physically got your mitts on the dials?

Is the discount 20% or 25% at the moment?

[clee]

It's 20%

[phase i 16 v turbo]

Are you thinking of changing it to 25%, if so when? Thanks!

[clee]

Right after your next order :cooter:

[phase i 16 v turbo]

Thanks!!:D

[Big Steve - Raider]

Or do you want to wait until you've physically got your mitts on the dials?

Yeah we should wait until we get the dials in our little mits before we start collecting dosh! ;)

I agree with your group e-mail thing to the first lucky 35 then we'll throw the rest into the lions pit! :laugh:

just saw this thread now as i`ve been awol a bit.

i`ll be watching the shop like a hawk :D

ive been away ,i will still want a set pm me with payment details once sorted thanks matt:)
thanks for sorting it out steve and the club:)

[JRP]

when will this be finalised?:) my car needs a set :)

[raj]

also, when someone has the time to fit these, could you do removal/refitting guide for the articles section.?

[Big Steve - Raider]

when will this be finalised?:) my car needs a set :)

Everything has been finalised with the manufacturer & Ian S should be sending them them half the money so they can make the final sample ready for sign off. Once that final sample has been approved b (By Myself & The New & Improved Bill J :laugh:) then we will be full steam ahead! I reckon it's going to take a couple of weeks to sort that little lot out!?

Sorry this is taking a while to sort out guys but I want to make sure it's all right & you're all going to be pleased with them! :niceone:


also, when someone has the time to fit these, could you do removal/refitting guide for the articles section.?

When I get the first "final sample" I shall be fitting it to the clocks in my car & doing a FULL step by step guide on how to change them & putting it into the guides section together with plenty of photos of the dials so you can all see how lovely they will look! :D

Good work Steve, looking forward to these and glad I got my name down in time :D.

When you get one/them for verifying can you revisit some of the questions from thread 1.

I wanted to know the options on the fuel gauge, did you get different ones produced?. I want to secure the right one.

THANK YOU!

[OLLIe]

my good god those are epic... i`d sell my right testicle for a set.

[Woznaldo]

Millie & I both think they look EXCELLENT! :cool::cool: They're a bit difficult to take a picture of; so take it from me that they look IDENTICAL to the original ones!!

I'm planning on fitting them to my car this weekend to see what they look like with the night illumination & will post up some pictures of that hopefully on Sunday night??

thank you Steve for the details! :agree:
for French, like I you and known as in MP, I wait to see what its will give on your GT!! :cool:

I am not desire for saying to you yes for X French, and that to final, nobody says any more yes, because quality would not be appropriate to them (those which would be OK, want that they are copies faithful has the origin, therefore I wait to see your assembly!!) :ujack::francais:

[mikey_r5gtt]

They do look the muts nuts mate!:cool: Not sure if you have mentioned about payment yet (its a long old thred to read) but can you confirm how much and where you want it sending etc.

thanks for all the effort btw

[Big Steve - Raider]

*** FINAL UPDATE ***

Right guys I fitted the prototype set to my clocks this evening & have to say I think they look FANTASTIC!!:cool::cool::cool:

Check them out for yourselves!


OLD DIAL FACES

http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn259/BigSteveT/Raider/IMG_1685.jpg


NEW DIAL FACES


http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn259/BigSteveT/Raider/IMG_1715.jpg

They were fairly easy to fit but you do need to be careful as you have to pull the needles off each clock. I took a fair few photos for a fitting guide as & when I get round to putting it up here.

I've not as yet had a look how they look at night because my car is currently 35 miles away so I can't nip outside to plug them in but can only guess they will look as good at night as they do in the day! I'm certainly guessing that they will look 1000% better than all the wishy washy light pink dial sets that we're currently all running about with! :D

I know all you 35 are itching to get the opportunity to purchase your sets so I NOW FINALLY SIGN OFF THESE DIAL SETS & APPROVE THEM FOR PRODUCTION!!!

Clee & Ian S, please can you get the payment over to the manufacturer ASAP & get them all made?


PURCHASING YOUR DIAL KITS


When all the dial sets have been sent to the Clee in the Shop I will be sending a group PM to all 35 people with their names down and tell them how to send the payment to Clee.
You will then have ONE WEEK to purchase your dial sets from the club shop.
If after seven days no payment has been recieved from you then it will be assumed that you do not want the dials so they will be offered to the others who have shown an interest.
IanS and Clee are negotiating with the supplier about getting more made in the future so don't panic if you miss out on this round, their will probably be another group buy in the future.
I think that's cleared eveything up with this thread??

Thanks for all your support for these dials & the work put into getting them made, it is much appreciated!! :niceone:

I hope you all enjoy them!!! :D

[TrixNFlix]

Wow they look great. Realy show up the needles now! :D who's doing a group buy on needles :cooter:

[tonesGTT]

top, top work. Cant wait to get my set. thanks for all the effort on getting these made up. :yeah:

[OLLIe]

looks fapping awesome, my dials are so faded all the lettering is white! completely white!!

[Mart]

Top effort Steve mate, the dials look pukka.

Good to see common sense finally prevails regarding the name list/payment method ;)

Just one thing me ol' fruit, do we get both types of fuel gauge in the dial kit, or do we have to specify which one we want at the time of purchasing?

[Big Steve - Raider]

Just one thing me ol' fruit, do we get both types of fuel gauge in the dial kit, or do we have to specify which one we want at the time of purchasing?

Everyone will be getting both fuel gauge options as part of the set so you can choose which one you want to go with depending on what you've known for ages or favour! :niceone: :D

[Wallace]

OOOoooo Yeeeeah!:cool:

Nice one Steve:agree:

[Lomo]

[gtmatt]

What great work there steve and the club for doing this outstanding group buy , the club serves the Renault 5 proud .

cant wait to fit them :)

thanks again matt

[Trevhib]

Wow they look great. Realy show up the needles now! :D who's doing a group buy on needles :cooter:

I'm not sure that the GTT needles have faded that much over time tbf, certainly not like the dial fade. I thought they were always a different, lighter, more orange, slightly transparent colour from the dials at production?

[Hoolio]

I'm not sure that the GTT needles have faded that much over time tbf, certainly not like the dial fade. I thought they were always a different, lighter, more orange, slightly transparent colour from the dials at production?

If mine are anything to go by the needles are indeed quite a lot lighter than the dials.

Great work Steve, was a little worried as in some of the pics they did seem very orange but that was clearly camera cast, those pics of them fitted are spot on.:agree:

At this particular moment it's very far away as I've yet to get my hands on a KP/H set of dials so send off for manufacture.

As & when I get a set they'll be pretty quick to reproduce I guess.

Big Steve,

In that case i'll go with the MPH set.

Clee,

How much do I need to cover postage to Oz?
