I've come across a developer on ebay that can make new gauge layouts for us. These will not be regular old layouts but will be retrofitted to a blue plasma type of display. You can see this as an example by following this link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... OTORS:1123 This is an example however, we can decide on exact colors/fonts/etc later. The approximate cost will be $90-100 and I need TEN people to get in on it. These will be custom made for us directly at their factory! Here's the kicker, I plan on doing the 145/9k gauges only. If you are interested in the 125/8k gauges, we will need 10 more people to support the cost for that set and the layouts from a cluster. For the guys that are 125 and no tach, there is a kit on ebay for you already. I really want this to be done, even if it means covering the cost myself BUT if I do that, expect a huge markup when I sell them later on. Now is the time to get in on it! We will be looking at a time frame of 3-4 months between gathering people, sending out layouts, developing, creating, getting them. Who's in? 1. Mechacode 2. 89D15CRX 3. Johnny_B. 4. LILEVO 5. xxNocturnalxx 6. colt200 7. tundabolt 8. 9. 10. |

I'm down for sure. I'm always interested in something different. |

2/10 down already. Don't slack off guys, considering how limited our market is, this is probably the only time you'll be able to get a set. Addition- Price will actually be LOWER than I mentioned above! As it turns out, they add nearly $20 to cover ebay fees and as we would be buying in one large batch directly, we can get a lower price.

Another quick update. These will be more than likely look stock, black plates just with a blue glow. By going with blue, they will be SWITCHABLE in color, they can be switched to a green glow that looks like our stock green, great for the people who have other gauges that match the green already. Also, if you can't reply to this, pm me!! |

I would really like to get a set with a red font and turbo written across the speedo and tach in Porsche font. If they can't add personalizations the red text would be my only request. |

Oh yeah and a colorized redline would be a nice change too. |

I don't like the white(daytime) at all. Would it be possible for it to be black? |

I second this notion.

The white is just ricer and doesn't match anything. Put me on the list if black is decided. |

I'm pretty sure that they will be stock replacements, black plates with white lettering (with km/h under the mph like stock). The only thing that will really change will be the glow (blue/green switchable). Might add tiny tweaks to the design but nothing major. To reply, go to this thread via the general discussion forum instead of the admin announcements. Philip+nocturnal, are you two in or...? |

I'd be interested if we could do a silver face kinda like the Mirage GS had. As for backlighting, I'd prefer green/white or OEM GVR4 style amber/green, but if its only available as blue green Ill go for it. -Shawn |

They'll be black plates with the blue/green (switchable between the two) glow. |
