The west coast is going to miss the good Doctor and his talented hands. He did a fantastic job of assembling the guage. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) He over can some problems with holes linning up. If you need a guage put togeather find the Doctor to do it.

To straighten the lights all you have to do is put a pen in the back and reposition....sheesh. The kit was crappy. The holes for everything did not line up and needed to be "corrected" the best that I could. I also have a technique that allows me to put the light bungs in with out using the adheasive recommended. If they were glued, I have no idea how they would conduct groound.

I told Dan Root about the problems I had and he will make sure that his kits are top notch (of this I have no doubt). It was a PITA. If the kit was right it would have been so much easier.

Thanks for the props, Bill (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Yep, hoping to make a run of like 100 of these. But it won't be for a little while. I have a feeling I will need to make a couple, assemble one, make another few, you know, R&D stuff. I don't want to powder coat them like the orignal kits either. Too much texture. I want to anodize the front plates. We'll see how things go. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) There is a thread on this that was updated not too long ago.

I bought the kit from Jeff Fort, the oil pressure and temp modules came from a 1984 911, the fuel module is stock 914. Mike Dr Evel assembled the parts. That where the guage came from.

Notice (if you can) that the low fuel indicator is a solid red now. My own personal modification (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
