I can put anything you want on there.... A picture of your car, your girlfriend, some ****, spiderman, your dog. If you get the picture to me, it goes on the gauges...

they look pretty sweet, i think after i see the night pics, i might want some. Did computer program did you us, and would you be willing to sell the template file? So if I get tired of the same old color gauges I can make some more in different colors.

Sorry bro, can't give away my trade secrets. And as much as I'd like to, I can't give away my hours of work. Sorry. I spent at least 10 hours designing these @%#@ things on my comp. I don't think my eyes have ever burnt that bad before...

Sorry guys, I couldn't get the digital camera tonight. A buddy of mine borrows it from his work, so it's kind of hard for him to get a hold of it sometimes, but please be patient, I'll get the pics up as soon as I can, I promise.

As for those metric gauges, would you be willing to pay for the shipping on that cluster? If you are I would probably considering making up a Canadian set for all you Northerners...

They don't stick, they just lay behind the needle and then the two small black screws will hold them in place. If you really wanted to, you could tape them down around the edge where it wouldn't be visible.....
