Hey guys, unfortunately the 52mm will require extensive tooling modification and will cost another several thousand dollars to produce. That being said, if there's enough interest in the 52mm we will produce it. I'll discuss with the factory and we can potentially setup a group buy in the near future (it may cost a bit more though). Thanks,

Gary

Bastards you would have to make it assymetric to suit left hand drive!! We have right hand drive cars down here and I can't exactly turn it upside down....

I've been eyeing one of these off for a while, since you had the original ones available...

Unfortunately though, like Boomtown, I am from Australia and have a RHD VIII.

Looks like we might be waiting for a long time to get a RHD one considering the high expense of manufacturing the molds

I knew there was something that would deal me out... Guess I'll check back, down the road and see if you get a 52mm together.

How about a set of adaptor rings with 60mm outer diameter and 52mm inner diameter? No re-tooling costs and should be cheap to produce compared to re-tooling for a whole new gauge panel.

You could make some inexpensive adapter rings for the 60mm holes to size them down for 52mm.

Whats up with you guys liking 52mm gauges anyway!
