Tachoscheibe Aufkleber... (speedo decalls)

[Dackelone]

Tachoscheibe = Speedometer

Aufkleber = decall

So… after seeing that 135i performance with the M3 speedo & tach gauges got me thinking… So… I started to poke around ebay.de Take a look at what I found…

First, here is that 135i Performance…

135i w/M3 instrument gauges - from Sunday’ Burger King coding event.


And here is what I found on ebay.de…



Lights on…


Lights on…





And the needles…



And…

New 1M speedo/tach…


I kind of think the aftermarket gauges look a whole lot better than the 1M prototype. I like the M3 cluster the best though. But that will run you upwards of 600 euros when all is said and done.


IF anyone wants to find the speedo gauges on ebay.de here is the link.

I do not know. I suspect you have to do that via coding the new instrument cluster.

I know on older e36 and e46 models there was a removeable chip - in teh cluster. In this "chip" the mileage was recorded. IF you installed a different instrument cluster there was a little red light at the end of the MPH on the speedo that would light up. Telling you something ain't right. BMW also has the ABS and Trans ECU's record miles. ALL three (or two for MT cars) have to match - or that light will come on.

I put the 1M instrument pannel there just for show. Because these aftermarket decalls look A LOT like the new 1M. I suspect the same German company makes them both. lol But that is just a hunch.

So, if I install this, that means my car will now get to 300km/h?

I am told a 135i with a flash/tune will do 290 to 296 kph! So... yea.

I do not know. I think I would have a speedo shop do it for me. They could not charge that much if you just hand them everything.

I know of a very good speedo (Tacho - in German) shop near Frankfurt. They do excellent work. They can even make you custom dials or anything you can dream of.

Hi to everyone !

I want to install this item on my 135i.

Have you done this on your cars ?
Can you help me, because the seller doesn't speak English and I can't have so much details and Im' in France and far away from Germany...
Also, I didn't get the story with the paint for the needles !

Thanks in advance

I would say IF you buy these decalls(stickers) have a Speedo(Tacho) shop install them for you. While it looks easy - it is not an easy job to do right.

Or have a custom speedo made for your car. One very good shop is near Frankfurt in Darmstadt.

So.. I guess after all this time no one was brave enough to try these decals from ebay.de ?

Someone on the forum has been making some by himself a little while ago. He was selling them pretty cheap and they looked pretty like the real thing. Just make a search, it should show up
