I got my computer running kinda... Here is whats going on. He doesn't want to accept any cash until he has a rough set made. I am sending my cluster out in the next day or so and he will start working on the basic shapes. Until then anyone else is ok for jumping on.

 

Cool, thanks for the update 7-sins. I definitely want a set, but I'm in no big hurry. Better that he takes time to make it right than hurry through it and they come out sloppy.

 

i would be interested if the gauges will be recessed like the OEM. I have a set of blackcatcustom gauges and even after several adjustments they rub and drag a little, particularly the speedo. it is wierd when i gun it, and then start slowing down, but the needle is still climbing. do we know if they will be recessed or flat? actually, i don't care about recessed, just as long as they don't rub.

 

any update on this? your cluster sent? has he started work?? etc etc

Thanks

 

Not yet, I'm getting ready for my vacation here this comming week and the woman just got a new Mazdaspeed Miata so I am trying to take a break and pull the cluster out still.

 

i would like a set too. lemme know if i can still get in on this.

 

Thats not the attitude, theres people waiting for nice glowing dials here

Have a good vacation mate!

 

Update:

Cluster is ready to ship, if it doesn't go out today. 9\10 it will go out tomorrow 9\11.

odditysmurf your more than welcome to join, infact anyone else is too.

For the people who wanted white faces, he CAN do that as well as any other color.

Shame my tuner went and popped my engine for me.... ******!

PHIL

 

Oooooohhhh, I'm excited!

 

I wouldn't mind getting those guages...
Looks nice.

 

IS this still happening? I'd like black face with white lighting and red needle...is that where this is heading?

 

Yeh.. update us about these 7-sin

 

I just sent him another email to check. The last I spoke with him was on the 16th, making sure he recieved the cluster. He said "I will get to work. I'll let you know when I need deposits."

 

good good.... been out for a beer and I'm pretty pissed. Still wanting these gaguges though!!!

 

Well, count me in, k?

 

He emailed me back:

"I am finishing up some sets and designs, and will begin this week. I have
the extra EL, so I should have an example for you soon."

Anyone who wants to be is in, I will let you guys know when he will need deposits.

 

Sounds good....

 

Those white gauges might not look too bad on my white FD

 

Will we be able to order these from him even after the group buy?
I would like to get some but may have to wait until this winter. I would also like to see them on someone's car first.

 

You can see it on mine Tim cuz I'll be gettin one from the group buy. Oh, this is Smitty.

 

Hey Smitty,
that's great. What color combo are you getting?

I'm getting tired of my ricey indiglo gauges. I like the white-faces in the day though.
I'll go with the white-face with white backlight at night. Or if someone does the black-faces with the tinted lenses where they glow during the day, I may do that instead.

 

How much did these clusters cost again?

 

The price for his vw gauges were $60 deposit and another $40 when complete. I think the price range will be around the same but he said it might be a little more because of the amount of ElectroLuminescent material used.

No more updates at the moment, he still has my cluster and I am waiting for further info.
