Default Custom gauge overlay

Anyone know where to get a custom gauge overlay? I'm getting tired of the red lighting in my Trans am. I emailed 6LE and apparently McNord isn't doing them anymore at this time. What are my options here?

I posted up some info in your other thread. They had a pretty big issue with their overlay manufacturing equipment and I spent a good 4 hours on a conference call and remote technical support to get them up and running again a couple weeks ago. They should be available for ordering sooner or later.

Here's a copy&paste from the other thread:
McNord/6LE Designs make them but I think McNords site is down right now. They had some technical issues with their manufacturing equipment (which I fixed for them a couple weeks ago), and from what I've been told, they are catching up with old orders before offering them for sale again.

That's a shame, I was really wanting to order mine from McNord since I've seen so many nice overlays by them. Is there any other company that makes them, vendor or not. You can pm me.

Why not just wait a little for him to start accepting new orders? It seems to me they sell well so I would think they will be back sooner rather than later..

We'll have them back by the end of the month when McNord gets caught up. Considering bringing back the "pick your options" format we used to have where they start at $149.99.

Only reason we changed it to ANYTHING you want for $2xx.xx (I honestly forget the price) was because people were AVERAGING over $300 on the pick your options one (some hit $500!) so we figured one price for anything but that almost killed sales... people end up overwhelmed an indecisive lol.
