I'm going to let these play out here for a while to get some national/international attention but after a while they should head to the Vendors section (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Excellent. You'all better be pony'n up some dough.

It's actually a PDF file. I placed a copy here:

http://www.webfast.com/~skip/914/flyer.pdf

that should download and open just fine.

The link is to a PDF file, pretty standard stuff.

The gauges are the same, just one is english units, the other is metric.

I don't think the right side is Bar... I think it's something like kg/cc or something. I have a guage from a european 924 or something that is in the same units. Took me a while to figure out what it was/is for......

I have enough "stuff" to make about 5 more right now.

The metric version is 10 bar scale, or 150 PSI.

I have had these available for a while, I can put any 90 degree sweep VDO gauge in it. It seems that no one realized that I could use a 150 unit instead of an 80 psi unit work for a 6.
I also did a unit the other day for a 911 guy tat had 2 CHTs, oil temp and pressure.

O.K. so I'll be the guy to start the shart maybe but I have to ask.

Since you are doing such a good job with the quad gauges.....could you.....would you ....maybe start a run of the traditional 904 triple gauges? No one else could seem to get it done to a complete unit (or complete face for that matter). I was on the list for the triple faces but no one could get the silkscreening done (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) the silkscreening done. You certainly seem to have the right connections (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

If someone has the stamped bezels, i can get them and the faces printed.
Most good silkscreen shops charge about $70 for setup and around $50 to run 50 faces.
The shop I use does all my showcar / prototype and SEMA stuff, so i get a good deal.
The stamped bezels require pad printing, since the surface is not flat.

Someone here was/is selling the faces without any printing. I THINK it may be John (?) Maybe the 2 of you could get together on this? I'll do what I can to find out who specifically it is that sells them. I and MANY others would love to see the triple faces available again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif)

Woudl you want one of the faces first to make certain it is in the correct condition (?) for silkscreening? If so I would gladly be the one to buy it and have it sent to you.

If they are not a flat plate thay cannot be silkscreened, that could be why no one can do them. Pad printing is the way to go, more costly set up though. thats how they print on pens, keycains, balls, general SWAG.
I can't think of anyone off hand who pad prints, but I can check into it.

They are a flat plate. I could not find anyone that could do real sharp edges/fine lines that I wanted. (The quality was just not there) After sinking a bunch of time and money, I punted and am offering them unprinted.

After I saw your gauges, I thought about pursuing decals, but like yours, the white is just not opaque enough. I prefer them blank. I know what the gauges are for. It's pretty easy to figure out the fuel, temperature and pressure gauges. The idiot lights are equally easy to identify (at least to me). Where did you get your decals done and do you have extras? I do like the symbols....

John,

The Icons I use are actually a 50% gray. I chose this so that they are sub-dominant over the numbers on the face. The numbers on this gauge are also rub-downs, and are opaque so that they are very bright. I do have some more of the gray ones if you want them.

Do you have a picture of a guage with the CHT option? Is it possible to put an led down by the zero in the oil pressure gauge (similar to the gas guage)? Can the guages be reorganized so that the oil temp is on the left, oil pressure is on top, cht is on the right and gas stays on the bottom?

Thanks,

Dean
