ttt any comments?

DanoDMano · 12-10-2002, 10:48 PM

Its a bit much for my taste!!

Blue_71 · 12-10-2002, 11:09 PM

is the needle as close in color as it looks? i think you need to change needle color, some kind of yellow or something?

it blends in with the flames to much i think, otherwise i like it

jeffbo · 12-11-2002, 01:13 AM

I would have to agree with DanoDMano. I would prefer stock gauges, but that is just my opinion. It's your truck so build it to fit your taste. If you like it, that's all that matters.

67cst · 12-11-2002, 03:34 AM

definately original, but not my taste thats forsure...diff strokes for diff folks

Jwill41 · 12-11-2002, 09:06 AM

to each his own i guess

yellowgmc · 12-11-2002, 01:01 PM

LeRoy · 12-11-2002, 01:56 PM

I like it. Looks like something I'd do. But definitely change the needle color to yellow

Wonder why Lowblazer doesn't visit here....hmmmm

Project1970 · 12-11-2002, 03:32 PM

How do you have those things lit up like that?

chevy2racr · 12-11-2002, 04:26 PM

thanks all, needels are the same color, I might change them I dunno, I'm deffinatly gonna re do te lens. all I did for lighting was 194B lights, the whole inside of the dash is gloss white as wheel. I didn't know if I painteda couple up if anyone would be interested in one or not.

Dean23 · 12-11-2002, 10:41 PM

they look cool but i would paint the needle yellow or black to make it stand out though

>X< · 12-11-2002, 11:33 PM

cool, looks like something i would do when i'm bored one day.

*Gee_Emm* · 12-12-2002, 12:29 AM

interesting !?!?!?!?!?!?

Hooter · 12-12-2002, 12:53 AM
