I have no connection to this, but this guy is on the TurboTbird site. Had it on Ebay twice with no bids so you may want to contact him.

Again, I don't know anything about the seller or the product, so buyer beware and all that.

I know the auction ended, and he re-listed it, and that auction ended, but the unit didn't sell so he may be willing to deal. Just a thought.

As for making a face, you got me on that one!

I might be interested in selling mine, since my car just sits. Send me a pm with your email and I'll send some pics.

They are holding up perfectly-They illuminate just like the stock faces. I'm very happy with the quality.

Great... now I have an idea. :D

I'll have to wait until after our move to TN, and I'll need a Sport tach...
