    Yeah, when you get all the kinks ironed out i will probably buy another set for when I restore the whole interior. I am content with these for now.

    i had stock fresh 194 bulbs with my old white face setup and had no issues with lighting up at night.


    Also i will probably buy another set when you release them. Not happy with the way they laid out.

    What was the shipped price on these again? Also, any hope of making a speedo in km/h?

    Example:

    I mailed it Feb 8th in a bright yellow envelope about the size of a Christmas card. It was thicker than a normal Christmas card though due to a pit of extra thick paper used as padding. It cost $1 US and was mailed at the PO with their stick on postage, not regular stamps. PLEASE let me know when it gets there. I might have to use...ugh...UPS or Fed Ex for the rest of my CDN shipments. You said stuff takes abotu a week...that would have put it at 2/15...hopefully Monday...just let me know. Due to it's thickness it might be held up in customs?

    Re: White faced gauge overlays / L body

    It is March, I am hoping Juggy has gotten it by now since I have'nt heard from him...which is okay, but I would just like to know so I can let other CDN guys know about how long it would take to get there. The new ones are still not ready yet, so just wait until I repost them.

    ALSO...Any of you guys taht ordered them and have NOT put them on yet, e-mail me and I will send you a template that you can use to mark where the hole for the gas gauge needle needs to be. ataylorracing@comcast.net

    Re: White faced gauge overlays / L body

    My friend Chris in Chester, VA did all the work. Here's a few pics of my L-body cluster before shots of the factory white needles then painted orange.

    He did run into some problems installing the overlays, mainly since the gauges are not flat and the overlays are, a slight problem arose on the 3 gauge one where he had to cut the overlay so it would lay correctly. Overall he said it was not bad. Notice the odometer too......!

    needles look decent, but they look red. What kind of LEDs did he use?

    Re: White faced gauge overlays / L body

    They do look red, but I think he used some kind of flourescent neon orange nail polish. I have no idea what LED's he used, sorry.

    Re: White faced gauge overlays / L body

    The needles look red in the pictures but they are orange, almost an exact match with the red line on the overlays. The blue LED's i used are from Velocity LED's. They have a website which is www.vleds.com They have a great selection of LED's for just about any bulb in your vehicle. Some can be quite expensive, but they look good. Blue or green LED's will work best in the gauge clusters.

    Three week shipping time for Canadian orders isn't that bad. Any word on the km/h overlay?
