Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

It is the Elio.......and his display of choice may grow on us if forced to use it.

I agree. I still refuse to condemn something I have not even seen. I am at least willing to give it a chance and then decide. :-) Z

Has the Elgin instrument panel been used on any car or bike?

I don't know, but if I can let the guy get away with calling me, "older, more affluent" , I guess I can let the man pick what kind of dash he wants to install on his car.

Not quite. That is an Elgin Streetsweeper. This dash is supposed to remind Elio of his father's watch. More like this

So where did the so called "Steel Boobs" idea come from? I seem to be missing something. :-) Z

If Paul thinks it will work there may be some reason he thinks so.
I am waiting till I see the thing.
Like zelio says it might grow on us.

One of an Elio Forum's female members (possibly this one, or -- Elioclub.org --), said that looking at the proposed dash; reminded her of a pair of "Steel Boobs" staring at her! Maybe she has seen too many of those Viking Operas.

Have no idea, but like you Z, I'll wait to see what he comes up with before I bad mouth it. Who knows, maybe it will be better than the P4 dash. I had no problem with the one they had, but it's his car. I guess if you don't like it, you get to let him know by not buying it. But I think I'd learn to live with it, before I would forfeit my grand.
