Do you guys understand even if he makes a mold it will just be of the gauge section. You still have to cut a big hole in your dash bubble and blend the molded gauge section into your stock piece.
Not easy to do and VERY time consuming. Making a mold of the entire piece is way to costly. This is why I went the route I am going, a replacement part with nothing but painting to complete the purchase/install.

Also, I like the sleeper look, and don't necessarily want everyone seeing my lit-up gauges at night. I was thinking about putting them all in a row just below the ashtray/drink holders, on the black plastic cover over the heater core (I think that's what is behind there). But that may be too low. Any ideas and/or pics would be appreciated.
Anyone mount them under the dash overhang, in front of the factory gauges? How about overhead?

Would someone be interested in building a few for us? I was thinking about the (2) gauge dash setup, and the (2) gauge plus (2) button overhead setup.
I for one would be willing to buy both setups from someone as long as they came out well.

Sharp shooter; do you sell these? I like them a lot better than the 3 pod! I would pay for someone to engineer something to the middle of the dash !
