One of the nicest upgrades how to install a aftermarket tach dial on your 2016-2021 Mazda MX5 ND ND2

One of the nicest upgrades how to install a aftermarket tach dial on your 2016-2021 Mazda MX5 ND ND2
In todays video I will be installing a new orange tachometer dial on my 2019 Mazda MX5 30th Anniversary. The orange dial pops and complements the orange color of the car and the rest of the interior. In my opinion it is one of the best modifications that I have done.

You just helped me so much. Thank you.

[@Themazcorner]

glad it helped! Appreciate that!

[@renfielddonnie7788]

Just in time! I got mine from cravenspeed few days ago. Looks easy to install but also easy to break hahaha

[@Themazcorner]

Yeah it was a quick job and yes always a risk of braking something 🤪😂

[@ecristofoli]

Will you be doing any engine modes like the (BBR turbo) anytime soon. Also, can you list the interior tool you used in the clip?

[@Themazcorner]

No engine mods. I don't have any luck with my cars 😂. But it sure would have been nice with with a 240-250whp setup Amazon should sort you out, e.g www.amazon.com/Tresalto-Auto-Trim-Removal-Tool/dp/B01L8GHB7O/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=plastic+pry+tool&qid=1628143168&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyMU1LVzYzODg3S0xEJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMTc4MTQwMk5CV01ZT1FFQU5ZWCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNjE3MjA3MThHUUtJUjVMQ002UCZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX3Bob25lX3NlYXJjaF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl

Thanks for this video! Got a tach dial from I.L Motorsport and installed it myself with the help of your video. Took me a lot longer (first time doing anything like this) about 1.5 hour. But i got it in the end. So big thanks for the video! Would've been a hell of a lot harder without it.

[@Themazcorner]

Sorry for the late respons! Glad the video did help out in the process and good job!

[@johnzhu5735]

nice install video! Would also prefer to see it running with car on.

[@Themazcorner]

Thank you! Yeah I did realize it would be good to show. Will try to show in some other video. But everything lights up etc as expected

[@markfoster7564]

Love your detailed videos!👍🏻

[@Themazcorner]

Thank you! Hope they are of help

[@roadoister3775]

COOL

[@Themazcorner]

Thank you, it turned out great

[@powemetal4life]

Where did you purchase it from?

[@Themazcorner]

I got this one from I.L Motorsport, Cravenspeed do have a similar one

[@sintineddi1]

man ur work make me dream ....i was a pro on my nc ssp 2006 but a noob on nd :-) and i learn thx

[@Themazcorner]

thank you :) I am learning as I go along, have to see when I brake some shit :D

[@sintineddi1]

@@Themazcorner we all do when we learn lol

[@MrTeller527]

Inspired by your video, I got one and installed it myself too. Lots of thanks :)

[@Themazcorner]

Great to hear! Hope you like the dial. In my opinion it was a really great modification!

[@lucianolucidi8624]

I bought one from sps germany in soul red but is not alluminium. Its nice but a kind of plastic.

[@Themazcorner]

Maybe 3d printed?

[@lucianolucidi8624]

@@Themazcorner maybe. Its light like the original and it costed me 150€.

Gotcha

[@scottkillian4358]

Thanks for doing this

[@Themazcorner]

thanks, hope it helps someone out with something

[@matiasperezaguirre7746]

Why is it so expensive. Like it looks nice but so expemsive

[@Themazcorner]

Yeah it is a bit on the pricey side, but it made a big difference

[@matiasperezaguirre7746]

Just ordered the cravenspeed one. $275 USD plus shipping and customs making me cry

[@Themazcorner]

Hehehehe, did you check IL Motorsport if you are in Europe that is You will like it a lot

[@itaybutavia1204]

Looking great !

[@Themazcorner]

Thank you! Sure does look nice

[@lucianolucidi8624]

I like the orange part but j would be scared of installing it. Dont want to break something

[@Themazcorner]

It is not that difficult no need to worry :)

[@Jake-im2lv]

Not sure that I'm sold on the look, I think I prefer the original gauge appearance

[@Themazcorner]

In my opinion it made a big difference for the better as it gives some "personality" to the car and also highlights the tach as a center piece. But for sure not to everyone's taste

[@Davan514]

A bit unsatisfaying at night. I try to ajust the dimming but it is not so bright as in the daylight

[@Themazcorner]

It does not get as bright as the OEM as it is not plastic but it works for me

[@glennhagman4009]

Good stuff, Maz! Now I need to see how a red one would look with my 100AE. Maybe there’s a white one out there?

[@Themazcorner]

Thanks! Not seen any white ones. You could get one powder coated in white 😀

[@glennhagman4009]

@@Themazcorner I think the bright red would clash with my dark red interior, but white could look really cool (like a Porsche “S” tach).

[@Themazcorner]

Yes agreed. Kolla in den här www.ilmotorsport.de/en/mx-5-tachometer-speedometer-dial-face-silver-6776/2479

[@TheMomoStudio]

Hey man, unrelated question but you’re my last resort haha. Do you happen to know where we can get tow hook bolt for the ND MX5? I’m trying to instal a red aftermarket tow hook but the bolt it came with was too short & wasn’t the right size. Let me know! :)

[@Themazcorner]

sorry for the late reply! You want to know the size and thread angle on the OEM hook?

[@LePadhoc]

#YopLesPilotes ! Probably too late, but I get mine on Zymexx’s website… They are in Germany… 🤔😉

[@mariop.4898]

Nice detail and a lot of fumbling ;-)

[@Themazcorner]

it really was a nice addition to the cabin

[@jasondixon9095]

Where did you get that from

[@Themazcorner]

This one is from IL Motorsport, Cravenspeed do have a similar as well

[@peterlewis3540]

Many thanks, its very straight forward, but it would be very easy to snap the retaining clips, resulting in an expensive purchase of a new binacle. The job was easier than i had expected, but if your too rough, or your dashboard is a bit unforgiving, it could be an expensive upgrade.

[@Themazcorner]

Sorry for the late reply! As always there is a risk with things having clips 😬 But the end result in my opinion is well worth it

[@cristianceresara5028]

Dove l'hai comprato il contagiri arancio...lo fanno o l'hai fatto te?

[@Themazcorner]

I have bought it from IL Motorsport as they had it orange. I believe Zymexx also has some varaints as well
