interest in a group buy on white dash gauge faces

[uneekwahn]

Ok heres the run down.

Carquest will do them at $135 for 10 or more. They currently have 10 in stock.

Neo has told us that they can be installed by the driver and he has offered to assist (beer for him from all of us I say )

I will message each person privately and confirm they want them, and we will meet one day and go there together and buy them I guess (Nice Skyline convoy).

Interested parties (? = Not sure)

I will PM each of you when I get home tonight and we'll go from there.

Could do a group fitting at my place - garage Malaga!

For $135 I'm in for sure. Next weekend? 17th/18th?

[drifta]

well iam out this month with the wife ready to drop the little one any day now but damm $135 is nice and cheap

[zanda]

I'm keen but could use a fortnight's grace...

[uneekwahn]

Ok, well, there is definately interest but people need cash first (I am waiting on cheque from the RAC after some little c u n t s broke in to my place and stole my wallet and phone)

I should get that this week and have it cashed next week, so I'm good for Cam's offer of 17th/18th.

I will send PM's to everyone and get something sorted later tonight.

i need 2 get some cash 2, i should have enough by next wed (that is when i get pay from work).

Doing the work at cam garage, is a good idea as it is like 5mins away from my house

are we getting the ones which change colour from green and stuff at night?

[uneekwahn]

Yes, the ones that change from green to blue (not automatically though )

[Kaido_RR]

is there a switch or something 2 do it? also are they legal dont wanna be getting any yellows for lights ahahah.

Also do they have the stock colour just white?

[C yar]

yep 17th/18th. sounds good to me...

i will wait for the PM

[zanda]

FYI

cam and I went and had a look at these at lunch today......god bless the first week back at work....

anyway, they look pretty boss. really opaque, without garish insignias and they have a separate boost guage bit so you can keep the factory boost guage. they apparently dont require you to remove the nedlesfrom the factory cluster either.

woot!

[uneekwahn]

excellent.

you guys should of called me, I'd have come for a gander with cam and zanda !

h0 h0 h0 a poet and didn't know it.

What do you mean about the seperate boost gauge bit, meaning you can cover it if you want, or you can leave it black and standard?

Anyway, guess I better get back to working hard, or hardly working, one of the two.

Jason.

[zanda]

yes. you get an insert to put in there and there is a whole in the tacho that lets you see it.

Jason,

got your PM buddy Top stuff...

Personally, I'd like to get it mid-feb is possible. It's only a month away, as still gotta get over the xmas/new year alcohol consumption bill!

If we can arrange that, I'm IN

[Nizmo]

yeah i would be into but lack of money at moment .... early Feb can count me in as i should have "hopefully" sold my GTR wing which gives me a little bit of money to play with.

..... so we can have them change colour if we put different globes to light up dash? .....e.g Red/orange? which is probably highly illegal but ive got a colour scheme to adhere to

[uneekwahn]

errr

is there something wrong with the forums?

I got an email saying niz said:

But it certainly ain't here (Unless I'm too drunk to see it)

[caminperth]

Strange.. oh well...

These things look cool. Very very Malay style shop. Reminded me of some of the shops I saw in KL. Bad news is that he transfered 6 of his 10 in stock to another shop. We told him we'd be buying a heap, at least 10, at the end of the month, so he's going to get some more in.

Mid Feb is probably getting a bit late to be doing an install at garage Malaga. I'll be in my new pad by then so the garage will be closed. May be able to open - though I make no guarrantees.

[uneekwahn]

ok

well

i'll have my shit together mid next week, but i don't think others will.

we'll just wait and see how many people are really interested I guess, I've had 5 people respond saying they definately want one, so thats 6 (including me).

Once I get 10 people confirmed, we'll go a head and do it.

Too easy.

Jason. (drunk - as usual)

[ix9]

cam,

Nah, tis cool.. I won't need anyone to help install anyway, I've pulled my dash aparts countless times

Dam good idea tho' getting everyone to do thiers at the same time!

[C yar]

yeah jason i was thinking the same think earlier on ( the nizmo reply)

yeah when we have 10 ... let me know, you have my email

[zanda]

well - to answer the nizmo reply, the answer is probably no. the EL doesnt have a bulb, from what I saw. its a sealed array of very small LEDs..

so its green or blue.
