    Hi Guys,

    I am looking to make an Arduino based display for iRacing and other sim racing sims. I think I have all the hardware I need but my knowledge only goes as far as being able to follow detailed instructions.

    I want the Rev Limiter to be made up of 9 single LEDs, 4 green, 3 yellow and 2 red.
    I have one single 7 segment display for the gear indicator and one 7 segment 3 digit display for the speed.

    I have seen the tm1638 displays but I need something that is a bit more compact and customizable so that I can build it onto a wheel plate on my T500.

    Any help and directions appreciated.

    Thanks
