 My Touchscreen Speedometer Build Okay, so Im back again to tear up my Celica and try out some more ideas. This time i wanted to convert my speedometer gauge to more of a digital look. Check My build vids on this project: Part 1(obvious where I start the idea process)- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6L9cUbWXAyI Part 2(this is where i tear down the gauge cluster to fit the screen and build the frame) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym3MRFHDOhw Part 3(i have built the frame not its time to test it out) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0xc3zCLycg Part 4(FINALE) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O50S1x6aioc So initial of course i had to break down my gauge cluster   The only part i had to save was the actual odometer piece, because i need to save the mileage and the speed sensor is built in there. Fitting in was obviously a challenge solved by Mr.Dremel   Once i got that in there, i could start taking the monitor apart. The circuit board of the monitor and the controller for the touchscreen fit beautifully inside my cluster and since I was making my own turn signals i drilled in some LEDS as well    Everything fits niceeee    So now i just need to build the frame using the bezel of the monitor into the bezel for the gauges     put em all together and what do you have?

watched a few of your videos. Very impressive on the dash.
Not a big fan of the car PC/large ass monitor but the cluster is sweet. How accurate is it? This post has been edited by playr158: Dec 9, 2011 - 4:07 PM |
