      But I don't know if there are any nixie cubes like that so even if its possible to build one it would probably be expensive to build do so. So if you were to build one out of readily avaliable materials it would probably be to just use a regular gauge as a rev counter and have the speed be displayed by the nixie cubes.
      There were a lot of motorcycles that used this mix of analog and digital display back in the day so it wouldn't look too out of place.

    You should put this inside of a gearbox assembly, with contact plates for each position that close circuits which power the individual Nixie tube layers. It won't need a microcontroller, but it will be super reliable.
    For extra points, have a custom Nixie tube made that has digits for each forward gear and "R" for reverse.

    Also side note for printing but you should rotate everything sideways and print using tree supports. Tree supports are really nice and use less filament and seem to work super well for me and break off easy. The side ways printing is so that if you actually use the shifter they layer lines don’t line up with the force for shifting, this means the parts should not sheer apart on a layer line. Just a tip because I have made the mistake of printing what was easier but the part doesn’t hold up and shears at the lay lines when force is applied.

    to get rid of the support problem you could just add threaded insert. so it's kinda like a pipe with outer threads. then have both lower and upper piece to have inner threads. so you can print them flat on the plate. It would be then 3 piece set. and then you sandwich them all together. Prolly faster than having to switch the filament all the time and cleaner mating surface too. btw i'm doing it also. i already orderd the lcd display with bmw logo you showcased. :)

    So at 12:50 where you said it was a happy coincidence that it fit inside... I think that can become an intentional design choice... because then you can have yet another piece that closes from the top... say magnetically attached?... and it can be designed in such a way where you can hide the big gaps that needs to be there because it needed to be big enough for the nixie tube to insert from the top... so it would become a bezzle of sorts and expose only the text
