Template to print out white ra23 gauges

Hey I'm just wondering if anyone has made up a template on the computer that they print out and stick infront of the gauges to change the colour of them. I've got a ra23 celica. I just thought i'd ask before i got doing it myself. (the person that had the car before me painted them and then wrote the numbers on on with texta - YUK!)
Thanks.

Gee if I had known it was going to be in big demand, I would have charged for it. 
How about if I pdf it and put it in with the tech documents, unless someone wants to hoast it for me???
They are pretty much an identical copy of the standard gauges and will look fine so long as you do a neat job of it.

G'day Bugman,
Yeah I currently have something similar but still not happy with it. I want silver dials with backlit numbers. The next evolution of the faces should be nice. 
Hey do you still have any of your 28 bits or are they all gone??

I've finally found a tacho that I like & that will fit in the dash of my celica, so now I can get rid of my computer printed tacho, and make up a new face for my speedo that will match the style of my tacho.
My new tacho will look like this....
Except it's not going to go all the way up to 18,000rpm of course, mine will only go to 10 grand.  It should be ready in about a week, & I'm not going to say how much it cost, except that it's 3 times the price of the last car I bought.
Not very helpful for the original post, but was so keen to show off my new tacho & at least it's on topic. 
On my internet travels I also found this place, which can make customised guages for you or you can totally design your guages from scratch.

Yeah the TA22 gauge faces are a little different, the numbers are raised so you can paint the face then pick out the numbers. The 23/28 faces are screen printed on tin plate, so once you paint them, you can't see the numbers.
Did you get the pdf of my drawings TA22 ????

If anybody is interested, I am going to the cruise tonight. If you want to see my fancy back lit gauges, tonight would be a good time. I will try and get a photo for you but my digi camera is a cheepie and doesn't take good pictures in anything but good light.

Did anyone end up hosting the pdf, or put it into the tech section? If not, would you be able to send them my way, gold28?
