As for who gets the first 20 (thats just an estimate for the moment) will be a first come first served. Basically who pays first. If there is more than 20, then I may increase the number I create. I dont know how many I can make per day so I must start to make the prototype first to know.
Details will follow......
! and the gauge cluster idea is good, but could have sworn there was a DIY for this with parts list included
i just realized that YOU said you were gonna GONNA post a DIY on the gauges. i actually wanna try that myself so im just waiting for your post

The hardest part for me is to place the leds for the needles and have them aligned properly as it will be a different design from my custom job I perform.
Once I complete the prototype I will take pics of the results....
I will make as many batches for the gauges.....then that will be it...and I will move onto Tailights and retire from the LED mod.

If everything works out I will start making a batch...and from the concensus of this posting....looks like I can make 30 of them and some extra for warranty purposes. More could be made at a later date if there is enough interest.
I'll try to keep the cost resonable, but I need to cover costs of parts and my time (I'm doing this by hand and it will take some time and effort, plus I need to make the install instructions). So when the time comes, if any of you dont like the price, then dont bother me with your lowballing antics
, cause I'm sure someone else will want to be one of the 30 who will get this. I figure I would include the cost of shipping in the price as well. Until I talk to Astro again, thats all I will say about cost at this moment.Just remember, this is going to be hand made...not mass produced but I will make it look as professional as possible. I'm doing this as I know some out there can't solder if their life depended on it, and because I'm stumped with a DIY for this....I think making most of the kit up will be easier.
OH there is one thing I forgot...out of the approx. 30 I have counted....how many have TL-S and TL-P?

coming from the CL board =P
i'm interested also, should be almost the same, BUT I have a 6 speed. minor differances, will probably work (from what I read so far).
choice of colors? i was thinking something different like orange like in the g35s

It should work for a cl as well...the cluster is probably close without the shift indicator.

The reason why I was asking who has what is that the TL-P is easier to set up than the TL-S. Since I dont have the TL-S cluster here, it will make it more difficult to adjust the leds for the needles.
I think I came up with a plan to solve that so hopefully I can do both types again.
So as for now, I need to sit down and create a prototype....then I will update then with if it was a success or not.
