I want to do something similar but put them under the dash.

Yeah we could not put them under the dash because that is not what the customer wanted. Plus I don't like not being able to easily get to the masters. And if they start leaking they make a big mess.

I have had quite a bit of interest in the Billet dash piece we are doing for this project. Here are some updated pics of the drawing I sent out for a rough cost estimate. The Block of aluminum is almost 200 lbs and the end result is 20-30lbs. So there is a ton of machine work. I have 3 units already sold and I'm trying to how many others might be interested to help get the price down for all parties involved.

Rodger could you email me the G-Code file of this part so I could machine my very own dash.That would save me the time of figuring everything out myself.

G-code? How about I just send you a completely machined dash and you pay me what you think it's worth. No sense you having to do any of your own engineering.

I know it coats way more then $150.00, but if that is all you think it's worth I will send it to with free freight just because your the man. That's why.

Or just a really bad joke, and an inside joke at that. These gauge clusters will be very expensive and only done in a limited run of 10.

It's probably already been copied and ready for installation in another shop.
