Re: GP on Carbon Fiber gauges and now White Face (Phantom)
Re: GP on Carbon Fiber gauges and now White Face (Phantom)
Are/Were there any pics of the guages lit up at night with the LEDs? I've seen other clusters upgraded to LED, and the light has bright/dark points due to the focused beam of an LED, just wondering how our clusters look.

Re: GP on Carbon Fiber gauges and now White Face (Phantom)
I've got more pics that I need to upload. The types of bulbs I use a multidirectional. And then over around the cluster of gauges (4 smaller ones) I use 3 extremely bright LEDs. That small cluster is very hard to illuminate due to the design GM did. The "cans" that hold the windings block a lot so more light has to be focused into the edge of the plastic toward the face.
Here's a pic of a similar white faced product that the same manufacturer does:
And here it is at night with blue lighting:

Man, I really want the CF one. But cant spend the $80+ right now.
Are you going to be doing a second running of these later on in the (next)year George?

I'll have them available. It's just right now, the price is much cheaper. In the future, when someone just wants one the price will be higher.

You can change the color. I wouldn't recommend it with the carbon fiber, but you can with the phantom style. I just need to know before hand.

OK. This is closed. I'll get all orders sorted out and set up and when everything gets here, I'll follow up with shipping for those that haven't paid shipping yet. Also some folks ordered additional parts so those parts will be grouped with the gauges and sent together to save your shipping costs.

Still waiting on them to come in from the manufacturer. He was shooting for having them done today. He's gonna ship all at once. The CF are done but the WF became part of the GP so they'll all get shipped to me once the WF are complete.

Re: GP on Carbon Fiber and WF gauges (CLOSED)
All the gauge faces came in yesterday. I did a check and everything look good.
I have enough bases to send out 4 orders and need to get 56 more bases.
Bulbs will be in Wednesday. I'll post up tracking numbers as orders start to go out.
The white faces are pretty sweet. They have a blue layer so the individuals that wanted blue bulbs won't need them. As soon as I get my gallery set up I'll put up pics.

Hey Blake....
Glad everything came in.....one question though....
Is that blue layer an option.....I mean....what if we didn't want it to show up in blue. I was kind of hoping to try and get mine to show up in white light. Is this going to be a possibility?
Thanks....Dave

You wouldn't be able to see the numbers during the day. The faces are white and the numbers are illuminated from behind. The true phantom gauge is illuminated from the side with the light shining across the front. These aren't a "white faced" type gauge face that has it's own illumination. These work just like the stock gauges.

Re: GP on Carbon Fiber and WF gauges (CLOSED)
I got them all boxed up today:
Timothy Schermerhorn (paypal $14.75 for shipping)
Mike Flint (paypal $14.14 for shipping)
Kenneth Zink (full shipping paid)
Robert Lone (full shipping paid)
Jeff Scott (full shipping paid)
David Enama (this one will go out with the shifter cable and output shaft) (full shipping paid)
Colin March (full shipping paid)
John Gerber (full shipping paid)
Roger Edgell (full shipping paid)
Rick Bippus (full shipping paid)
David Saunders (full shipping paid)
Roy Horton (full shipping paid)
These are all gonna be shipped UPS ground taking 3-5 days, tracked and insured for $250 each. I can't send these USPS because they are worth far too much for them to lose. Even with insurance and tracking with the USPS, if they lose them, you cannot get your money back (been there done that).
Additional info. I spoke with the LED manufacturer and they highly recommended putting the matching color LED behind the appropriate color film. So turn signals are green, brake light is red, high beam is blue, white faced gauges have blue back lighting, CF gauges have white back lighting, etc. It sounds confusing but will be easy once you see it.
