bump from the dead...I'm ready to dress up my cluster on my SS and was thinking about doing the transam bezel with some white gauges and some decals from brent franker now that 6LE designs no longer offers custom gauges. I have been looking into the company mentioned above. Anyone have experience here on the forum? Work seems like good quality and they seem to be popular with the cobalt community and no complaints.

Need to contact them to get an idea on what their custom gauges cost. If the cost is no more than double of what 6LE's used to cost I think I'll give it a try. Theres a customer on their site with pictures of his guages in a camaro.

^^Nice! Those fit around the edges of the bezel better than 6LE ones. What color do they light up?

Thanks.

They light up the factory orange/red. The Indian Head and Tin Indian light up too. Not as deep a red as I would like. LEDs might help that.

I was considering the 6LE ones with the turned metal pattern. Love old school themes. :-)

Just FYI 6LE just posted a thread that he is doing gauges for a couple more weeks due to having so many orders recently that they had to keep the machines a little longer.

I've been e mailing black cat for the last week and he seems good to work with. I was about to place my order tonight but I just seen 6le post. I'll have to talk to mark to see if he can do custom Colors other than what's on his site. If not ill probably just order from black cat.
