Seeking a Speedo & Tacho for a 1969 ELAN S4 FED

PostPost by: jaman » Wed Dec 28, 2022 4:50 am

Don't know if I am in the correct Forum ... that said I am looking for a Speedometer and Tachometer for a 1969 ELAN S4 Federal.

If any one can sell me these or point to where I may be able to get these I would be extremely grateful.

Welcome aboard.

The remnants of Smiths Industries' gauge business is now called Caerbont Automotive Instruments, based in Wales. They sell new gauges. They have a number of websites, the Lotus bit is:

If you can't find exactly the gauge you want, the business right next door to them 'Speedy cables' (presumably a related company) will restore old or customise new gauges to your requirements. Feedback on this forum has generally been good about them.

Good luck.

Hi 2markvo,

Yes I am very interested,
I will send you an e-mail with a few questions, just to make sure that your parts will fit my car.
Also my contact info so we can "connect" and hopefully conclude a deal.

Thanks for your interest.

PS you are almost a neighbor Oregon vs Vancouver Island, BC
