Ever printed your own gauges?

[KingRamon0]

I've been thinking about printing new gauges for my 1990 Prelude S, but I can't find any printable ones online. Does anyone know of a site that has any, or do I have to create them myself?

get autocad and start drawing stuff. I don't really like the quality of ink though. They might start to peel when it gets hot in the car. you'll have to print it on transparency paper. for 4th gen lude since the odometer glows.

Here are my plans...

I bought a sheet of electroluminescent material that I want to use for the gauges, but I can't print directly on them obviously. So I want to print some gauges on transparency and then cut everything to the correct size and shape and laminate them together.

I'm not sure how well it will work, but I do have some indiglo gauges that I bought already made(I just don't like the color). So I'm thinking I'll scan those and use photoshop to create new markings using the old ones to line them up.

I might get started on that today, but I'm not much of an artist. Maybe I'll post some samples to get everyone's opinion.
