aston martin gauges

[Takid455]

where would I be able to find teh gauge cluster for an aston martin? do these cars make it to the salvage yards? looking at the newer DB9 style.

parts dept at aston martin dealer?

[Rolling_Thunder]

ouch! Be prepared (take vaseline with you) - my friends father ordered a DBs - that was a pretty penny...

[Takid455]

I am hoping a dealer isn't my only choice as the $ will hurt. wondering if they would so kind to throw in a wiring diagram.

chances are you need more than just the cluster. Aston M probably uses some odd data transfer to the cluster instead of regular square wave etc signals

We purchased the clock for a project.............950.00!!!! for the CLOCK!!!
so i cna only imagine how much the guages would be and then you probably wouldn't even be able to make them work with out a huge headache

wow. i think the stock gauges look pretty good. i will keep my eyes opened. getting them to work would be an issue as all my stuff is mechanical.

Nine hundred and fifty dollars for a clock.

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble imagining it. Is it one of those spiffy ones that auto-syncronizes with an atomic clock and uses a GPS to know when you cross a time zone line to re-set the time, or is it just an insanely-priced regular clock?

Might I ask what manner of a project needs a thousand dollar (after tax) clock?

[shmoov69]

Good grief!! What do those things look like??!?!

[monza]

Had a ride in one... damn nice, sorry I missed the clock. I doubt you'll find any going retail in a salvage yard?

Google exotic car salvage yards - I've been on a few SoCal business sites that specialize in wrecked exotics. You should be able to find something, the difficulty will probably the wiring, as I am guessing they are digital gauges run through one of the many CPU's on the car.

On a side note, I was looking at some really cool digital fuel sending units to mate up to digital dashes when I was at the Autosport Engineering Show in the UK. Because it was in Pounds Sterling and not the Dollar, it wound up being $1100!!! I don't think we will do that for a future project. So its not just exotic stuff that is painfully expensive.

I've just emailed someone local to me in England, including the wiring.

Finaly had the replys to emails and no one has got any .
