INDIGLO Gauges for about $100.

So how does this work now? We gave you $20, how do we put a pre-order in? Do we just do the pre-order and $20 will knocked off the total cost? Just curious, whats the count up to?

Come on Gen II guys! I am the first to pre order for our cars. We need 24 more! Let's see if we can get it in. These look really cool from what I saw at a recent car show on a Mustang.

Well crap, their site wouldn't take my order. It seems a bit messed up anyway. I added the upgraded glo unit and also a logo but it didn't charge me for either. I gave up after 3 tries. They won't be getting my order 
If they add the Lincoln logo, I'd give it another try. Think they'll add it? They seem to have plenty of rice burner logos.

Argh, this is like the 3rd time this thread has gottne replies and I didn't get any emails from the site.
Yep, I got the email as well. Fyi guys, I'm getting an 8000rpm TACH on mine. They will do it at no extra charge (I mentioned this above).
Trying to find out if they can squeeze more then 145mhz out of the speedo somehow. I don't mind recalibrating mine as I'll have to do it anyhow with a rear gear change (the SpeedCal rules!).
This weekend I saw the needle WAAY past 145mhz. I was racing a 2001 Cadilac STS. Ate him alive after I gave him a BIG jump... And didn't let out. I haven't topped my car out on the highway yet. I let out when the very worn 100k+ oem suspension felt too soft.
I did run out over 165mph on the dyno though (trying to get 6750rpms on the dyno in 3rd). It maxed out the dyno's ability to measure speed that fast. Oops. hehehe I only did that once to see how far/bad the stock intake/setup falls off, and when it falls off. It falls off badly at 5200rpms. Which is why I went into OD at 140mph when racing that Caddy.

Eric,
Are the 5 pre-orders on the site the one's you put in? There should be more..........or are we suppose to put in a preorder even though we gave you $20? I'm confused on what's going on here!!!

GOT THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAAAAYYYY!!!!
I just got my gauges today!!!! Arrived via USPS, was sitting at my door.
Notice the 8000RPMs and 7250 redline/caution. Doh! Looks like 7500rpms would be the max for you guys if you are ordering.
Ahhh.. Now to build another shortblock for this sucker (*cough* turbos *cough*)

We need about 10 more orders those gauges look great and you can customise your colors etc... check it out... click on www.speedhut.com then click on model development and scroll down to the mark VIII. I think it is a great idea. If we can round up 10 ppl it is a GOOO.

sweet!! I just called them today to finalize my order with a few custom tweaks. Get a pic with the indiglo lit up, that's what we are buying the damn things for !! LoL:7
[/div]
Haha. Well, I can hardwire them to light them up. Btw, I ordered the REVERSE Indeglow. To where only the numbers light up, not the entire face. Would be perfect in a sports car. Not a Lincoln with wood trim (rice rice baby). Not to mention how bright that would be. Hehe.
But WAIT!!!! There's a problem!!!!!
I didn't notice it until I was trying to put them in last night. Which I'm glad I looked at BEFORE i tore the dash apart.
Look at the cut-outs, the square-like holes in the two side faces in the pics above. Like where I have the 8000 tach line. And notice on the right gauge, under the "FUEL FILL" there are two sqaures!!!
Why are they there? I mean, our cars do NOT have holes there in the stock dash as shown below (and when I was looking at my dash).

I think they are closed today. But I'm sending them an email, and calling them first thing Monday. I will be sending them back.
Argh... I was all set to install them Friday night!

RE: GOT THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yea i was looking at that in the picture..............I'm 99% sure it's because there is a battery low indicator below that. But I think it will look like hell. I'm definately going to be talking to them about that. And I'm doing the same thing as you, only the reverse indiglo, I think the whole face lighting up will be way to bright. Let us know what they tell you about the cutouts.
