how are things going on? what would be the final cost if we want Headlight and HVAC overlay?

I am actually in the middle of making the HVAC as well, I just got done with the headlight about 5 minutes ago. It is really hard to find a place to attach the wires to the HVAC because the trim is extremely close to the edges of the overlay

Well I think I am finished and it was A LOT harder than I anticipated. The headlight overlay was easy to install so I did that one, but the HVAC would have been a lot more difficult so I just took some pictures of it in my hand.

The neon is actually all the same color, my camera just sucks bad at night and close up shots. I don't know why, it was supposed to be one of the better cameras out there at 5 megapixles.

I will look at all of the costs tomorrow and get a final tally for everyone.

It is not something that I am going to carry on. If you guys want a set, you will have a time limit on how long you have to order. You will send part of the money so I can order the neon, and then pay the rest when it comes time to mail them off.

Nice,I like'em...awaiting price tomorrow!!!

Looks nice I'm wondering how to get a set of white face guages for my instrument panel that light up and I also see that you got the white face HVAC ones too on there, and what would be cool is to make a thing like that for the knob for the power mirriors to match.

I have a ZETEC. any without the V6 on the tach?

I'm like you, I need some without the V6, because I have a Zetec also. I'd like it if I could have custom made indiglo gauges...

The overlays were a lot harder than I intended, but if I do decide to produce them, it looks like it will be between $45-50 shipped to your house with $35 up front so I can order the neon. I will let you guys know ahead of time when I am going to start the list and there will be a certain amount of time you have to sign up and get me the deposit money. This way, if you are one of the first people, you will know for sure when you will get your set. I won't have a minimum amount of people that need to sign up, if you really want the neon, you will sign up and pay the deposit.

I am awaiting one more part from the manufacturer to complete the prototype set then I will ship it off to wa2tuff and he can install it and get us some installed pictures because I didn't want to tear apart my dash for someone else's part.

I'll keep you guys updated, thanks
