Re:

Hey HardyDoug,
I tried taking the needle out and
I had no success, so I left them in my version of the
step by step, I ended up having to use a needle nose set
of tweezers to gently push down on the inside edge of
the gauges where the needle goes so that the edge is not
sticking a bit up thus preventing the needle/bulb from
turning. Oh and thanks for the kind words.
Hey
jep chrome
If you mean in the states, then the one
place would be would be either ebay or directly from the
supplier which is ProCarParts.com

So Doug.... does this mean you are sending the POD to
Twospirits? Or am I reading too much into this?

Anyway heres a couple of pics, notice that
dimmer switch fits very neatly in housing at side of
rheostat, thanks go out to Twospirits again, one for the
gauges and two for the install guide, how simple it was
to fit.

Re:

Why did she say no to them? I think they actually make
it easier on the eyes to see the indicators and to me
that makes it a safety issue worth
having.
Besides how did she find out, didn't you
put them in without her seeing it first? maybe if you
bought her something in exchange.

Re:

Maybe Twospirits needs a backup set in case his current
backup set ever fails after installing it if his
original set ever fails. You know, just in case. Better
safe than sor... oh never mind!

Re:
gauges
I bought these gauge faces for my daughter's Santa Fe
for Xmas. For the record the wiring looks thin like it
would burn before it could blow a 10 amp fuse.
I
used a meter to measure that the maximum current draw is
0.06 amps. I will power them from a 2 amp circuit that I
added. If I did not have one I'd add a 1 or 2 amp in
line fuse.
Also rather than do the thing with the
tape or paint on the back to eliminate stray light I may
remove the existing bulbs or if they are needed for
something then replace with blue LED bulbs.

Re:

You know being that I am updating my webpage (once
again) and looking over the step by steps as well as
this thread, I just noticed that the indiglo I sent to
Hardy were with MPH indications and not KPH. hmmm I
wonder if hardy got used to it or is he breaking every
speed limit over there.

Re:

It's all very confusing for us brits, we got both sizes
running together,
we got metric and feet and miles,
we got both weights running together,
thats
metric and pounds and ounces,
we got both quantity's
running together,
thats litres and gallons,
but
I be buggered if i'm going to use those kilometers as
well......so there....OH and another thing??? why are
your gallons bigger than mine
whoa.....I got going there a bit...calm down calm
down....i'll go take a happy pill shall I
.gif)
Do you know we are not allowed to sell, say, a
pound of apples any more...oh no....but you can still
buy a quarter pounder at Mcdonalds, madness
there I go again.......
