Hey guys, I created the topic here because the old topic was getting really dead. For reference, go here:http://www.nloc.net/vbforum/showthread.php?t=115826
To sum up the information on the previous thread, we need to get a working gauge overlay and send it to a company. From there, they need a minimum of 25 orders to make a custom color gauge. The custom gauges will run about $90-110.
I have been talking to a seller who says he will sell me a brand new cluster for $300, or a used cluster that has Kms over MPH, and he did not mention a price. So do we want to try and scrape enough money to buy the $300 brand new American gauge cluster, or save the dough and go for the used European cluster? If we have 25 people wanting to buy the custom colored gauges, we would each need to pay $12.
From there, I will take the stock cluster and ship it to the company. Once they have the overlay pattern, then they will begin taking pre-orders. In your pre-order, you can specify what color you want yours to light up, wether you want mph or kph, etc. Each person can individualize their own order. The cost is $99+8 for shipping. The total here is going to be $120.
And so you guys know I'm keeping this honest:
This is the stock cluster seller:

Let me know if you guys are interested, and if so, how we would want to go about setting this up. Thanks in advance!

Alright guys, we have reached our 25 people. If you are still in, PM me and I will start delivering my address for checks or if somebody could enlighten me on how to recieve money on paypal, i'll start doing that. I do have an account, but do not know how to use it. But I cannot stress enough: no cash please. With cash, you do not have a record of ever sending it. Refer to post 11 about cash problems.
Another important note: if you send check, please include in the envelope a piece of paper with your NLOC forum name on it so I can keep updaing this page with who has and has not paid. I will also PM to let you know your payment has been recieved. If you send the money through paypal, please write your NLOC forum name in the "note" section so that I know who has and has not paid and can PM you to let you know your payment has been recieevd, as well as update the front page.
Thanks a lot guys!
LATEST NEWS: We have reached our goal of 25 orders! They have begun tooling the gauges and soon the sexiest trucks ever will look so much better!
