Description
VW Transporter T3 T25 Vanagon Plasma Gauge Cluster – Back light style dash lighting upgrades.
The standard VW dash lighting is weak at best, the bulbs have a tendency to blow and finding replacements all the time can be irritating.
This kit has been developed to bring your Transporter T3/T25/Vanagon dash lights up to date and in line with modern vehicles by providing back-lit style characters on all of the instruments and an illuminated needle like you see on current vehicles.
These plasma gauge faces are direct reproductions of the Kilometers per Hour (KPH) units originally supplied by Volkswagen on the T3 Transporter or Vanagon.
100MPH Speedometer and Analog Clock Counter Plasma Gauge kit
Each kit is supplied with orange needle paint. In the following images the Speedometer needle is painted with orange and the Rev counter, Fuel and Temp needles are left white so you can make a comparison. (note, these images depict a MPH rev counter kit, image for reference only)
The brightness and hue of the gauge illumination can be adjusted via the inclusive adjuster. The brightness of the needle can also be adjusted via the original brightness adjuster on the original headlight switch.
Installation requires a minimal amount of tools and no specialist knowledge, full installation instructions are provided.
