View Full Version : White Gauge Faces Blowout!!

February-3rd-2003, 04:13 PM
Here's the deal guys. I was going through some stuff the other day and found all of the white face gauge sets I made to sell. (Forgot how good they look, and almost made me shed a tear for my pro because I miss it.) Anyway, I know how hard it is to find gauges for the pro so here's the deal. I'm not looking to make any money on these, I'm just selling them AT COST.. For $10 I will send you a set of two gauge faces for the LX clusters, (a total of 8 faces, 2 for each gauge). If anyone wants some, let me know because if not, I'll probably end up sticking them in a box somewhere. I'm now paypal capable also, so if you wanna paypal it that's cool. You'll get them lightning fast that way. Later guys....

Here's the nightshot you requested. I know they aren't perfect, but at least you can see them. :D

Also, I have seen this done and decided it wasn't a half bad idea, but seeing as my pro is gone, I can't do it. I think he just bought one of those small neon lights and mounted it in the cluster, after he took out the old bulbs. You could do this if the illumination really bothers you.

Oh, and I would be more than happy to take a money order!

hey... Glazedham...You like what i did?? its really easy to make them and its a Tres Dos Tres Original.. I thought of doing that myself.. i just tryed to think of something different that i could make my gueages blue and i came up with that... (i mean some one could have done it before me , but i have never sceen it done)
the directions are on my web page how to do it... i kept the bulbs in, they are just not turned on.. because that wasent mounted in my car then, but they are in now, just need to wire them up...
i also pained all my bulbs blue (like oil,gas, belt and all those) they look hot..
i got the neon at walmart... the greates thing is that they come in a bunch of different colors... if you want more detail info how to do it or any questions pm me or catch me on aol im- High Body

oh and it needs to redline @ 7 rpm...thanx

Glazedham42
February-3rd-2003, 06:35 PM
All I've got right now is the ones that are identical to mine....

If you guys express enough interest there is a chance I would consider making other colors, but I'm really not wanting to make more. I'm trying to get back some of the money I lost making these others. This is kinda my way of saying goodbye and thanks to all you guys that helped me while I was a protege owner. :D

SHIIIIIITTTTT! I JUST paypalled you my money, but I don't want them unless they're the 7k redline :( :( I will have two LX cluster's soon, so I need them! Let me know if I'm one of the lucky few, please.

Glazedham42
February-3rd-2003, 10:22 PM
7k is no problem at all Dan. Don't worry bro, I've got you covered. Yours are on the way! Enjoy! :D (When I meant they were identical to mine, I meant the basic design. Forgot about the differences in redlines. I did make two separate templates because I knew the majority of you guys would want 7k, even though my old DX was a 6k'er. So the redlines are no problem at all.)

P.S. Let me see some pics when you guys get them in!

Wil,

The faces are made on a clear material, so you can make the gauges whatever color you want, by changing bulbs I believe. And yes the letters are black.

How sure are you on that? If that's the case then I am getting a set too:D

Glazedham42
February-4th-2003, 10:28 AM
85% sure? I'm not making any guarantees but I'm pretty darn sure that it'll work if you change the bulbs... I took the green off of mine after the pictures and just had them shine white. It looked pretty cool and they were even a little brighter.

this may be a stupid question, but since there aren't any of those...how exactly do you install the gauge faces? i got them yesterday in the mail and they look great. i just gotta figure out how to put them in now. any help or useful tips to get them in nice and easy?

Count me in for a set. I am not sure if I need the 6k or 7k redline but I'll take a look at my cluster and get back to you. I will PayPal the money to you.

As far as installing them I highly recommend buying a razor blade or an X-acto knife. I used a very sharp razor blade to make the cuts on my gauges. You can't use scissors because they aren't sharp enough and they will bend up the gauge faces. I have mailed everyone a diagram so far showing how I made my cuts, but for those of you that need more info here goes....

http://www.evanagee.com/protege/gauges/Gauge-Cuts.jpg

A circle means cut a hole there. A line means cut a line from one circle to the other. Basically a line means connect the dots. For the temperature and fuel gauges, just cut from the hole straight down, all the way off the gauge. The space between the needles and the edge of the bezel is so small that you won't see the cut, so don't worry about cutting to the edge of the gauge face.

You will want to use a ruler when making your cuts to help keep the path of your knife straight. You could also use a hole punch to make the holes for the screws if you wish. If you have any more questions let me know!

James, check your PayPal ... I sent you money for the gauge faces. Please drop me a line to confirm we are all set. Thanks !!

Glazedham42
February-13th-2003, 11:38 AM
Yes, I still have a bunch left. I don't think i'll be running out of these for quite a while. Any of you guys that want some can send me a money order for $10.00. My address is:

Jamie Hamilton

Or if you are a paypal user $10.00 to evan@evanagee.com

Also, PLEASE specify which redline you want. It makes it much more confusing for me when I have to e-mail you back and ask. Thanks guys!

man, i live in canada, we go by KPH and ur gauges are in MPH,i mean i dont really ever look by how much i am breakin the speed limit so , ya who cares!
u said that by changin the bulbs in the back it will change that ugly green glow? so if i put some nice blue bulbs in then that would work to make it look blue?

Glazedham42
February-15th-2003, 08:42 PM
I'd say there's an 85% chance that the bulbs will shine through blue if you change them. I have these things priced so low though, I really don't see why it would matter either way. Nopi sells the same thing for ~$90 if i'm not mistaken, so either way, you're getting one heck of a deal here. I guarantee you'll never be able to find them this cheap anywhere else......

February-20th-2003, 01:55 AM
You've got Paypal! What a phenomenal deal! I'm telling a couple of friends from the ERDT forum about it, who are also swapping in some Protege guages into our 'scorts... :)

For any of you guys that are still interested in purchasing some of the gauges, I am now selling them through ebay. If you would like to purchase some just place a bid on my current auction. I am taking payment through paypal for the auctions. Here is the URL, happy bidding!

Look in the lower left corner to see the last time he posted.

I got mine in the mail and they look sweet. I need to post pics, once I take some. Just email him at the email he gave, he usually responds quickly.

You can trust him,as many have gotten their gauges and love them.

June-25th-2003, 04:12 PM
Please do not mail me cash, because if someone takes the money out of the envelope, I will never get the money, and you will think I'm lying to you when I say that it got taken out of the envelope. Then we both get frustrated, and you never get what you paid for in the first place. It isn't that hard to get a cashier's check or money order. Just go to the service desk at any local grocery, and chances are they'll sell you one. I also take paypal if you are a paypal user. Thanks!

i don't mean to talk bad about these gauges but i bought some and they were way off on the mph. i had about a 20 mhp difference between the white ones vs. the stock cluster. i did in stall them and quickly removed them when i noticed how off they were. if you remove your old guage cluster and take the new white one and hold it up to a flashlight on the back of the cluster and try to line up the white on you will see what i mean. besides that they are a complete pain in the ass to install with out removing the needles. i did remove the needles on mine and when i held them up to the light they didn't line up. they do look good but thats about it.

Is your name Justin? If so, then yes, I got your money on Thursday, and mailed your 6K gauges out on Saturday. I would've mailed them Friday, but no mail service due to the holiday.

If you are not Justin, then, no I didn't get your money.
