laugh.gif laugh.gif My Touchscreen Speedometer Build laugh.gif laugh.gif

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?
