Actually, we have to do a couple remakes for people from a previous group purchase so there's room on the sheet...

Long story short, the ORDERING PAGE IS BACK UP FOR A FEW DAYS IF ANYONE WANTS IN!!!

For those who ordered in this GP, start checking your mail boxes

ok i got my hvac overlays installed w/ no problems. i am worried about my guage cluster. regarding the needles. i know i start the car and let it warm up and then note where the needles rest. once i am ready to reinstall the needles do i start the car and just place the needles where they where? do i have to fill up the car w/ gas to make sure the gas guage reads right? i don't have a labtop to check it afterwards.

once i unbolt the cluster do i just pull it out? or is there a certain way it goes back in?

That is correct, you can fill the tank if you like but it probably wouln't make much differance if you don't as long as you don't run it for a LONG time to warm it up.

Yes, you do pull the cluster all the way out, it may take some effort to get it around the steering column, try twisting it down & to the right with the tilt adjusted all the way down. It will come out.

Just fill the tank before you put the needle back on . Otherwise it will be WAY
off and might leave you stranded due to its inaccuracies .

I haven't taken my dash apart yet, but I have my needles and overlay. Do these look like the needles you have that don't fit?



If so I guess I'll be needing a new set myself.

ZL1 and That Camaro Guy -

ZL1 - I've NEVER seen your type of cluster before on a 4th gen (or never paid attention)...is that an LT1? I thought those clusters were for 3rd gens. I made you needles for the only OTHER cluster I've seen...besides mine, which was the predecessor to the one in my '01.. YIKES!! I'll PM you some details....but i might have to break your heart.

That Camaro guy - Your needles are the same style I sent ZL. Can you post a pic of YOUR cluster if you dont mind. Looks like ZL needs needles for a cluster I don't make needles for. That Camaro guy has needles for the only LT1 cluster I make......so far.

EDIT - DUH.... ZL1, I just saw in your sig that it's an LT1. Just never noticed that cluster.

That Camaro Guy - Yep those needles will NOT work with a 93-96 Camaro cluster

Sommer86 - Yep all 93-96 Camaro clusters look that way 3rd gens are independent from each other and look nothing alike

hitmanws6 - I actually completely designed mine myself . This is the first
time ive seen yours actually Great minds think alike eh
