    VDO dial faces

    Hi I have a 69 E targa. I just bought some EU km'h dials to replace the mph dials in the dash. Now I see a slight color change in the digits. The kmh speedo has bright white digits and stripes, the otherdials (tacho, clock, combi etc ) have a beige tint. Is this because of wear ? or where dials colored differently trhough the years or USA vs EU. Any idea's ?

    Best,

    Jeroen

    I see a lot of '70 dials with white as well. Very difficult to tell from pictures. It is somewhat sloppy I think now with the different tones in one dash
