200 mph gauges
no, i mean the fastest I have been is around 144mph, and its just kinda pointless to go any faster, i am not trying to debate this, just stating point of view....I would still buy one of those if I did not already have my Macewen overlays....200 is NOT a realistic speed is all i was trying to get at....
Then you have to completely redo your suspension and braking system.
So not worth trying for 180 in a Camaro you don't want to dump tons of money into.
Naw don't do that. I was just saying that as a reality check. Would be cool to have the modded cluster. Just I wouldn't try for any high speed runs just for kicks. You might get disappointed after about 160 MPH you start to need alot of HP and tons of space to keep going!
alright, back to the original topic.
for $150 i might pick one of those up, especially if they can set them up in 20 mph increments all the way up to 200 instead of 10mph increments with a few 20mph increments mixed in cause they ran out of room
The overlays themselves are $150.
Don't forget about the "calibration labor."
Even though their site states it takes 30 minutes to do the conversion they charge $160+ in labor, plus shipping.

Does anyone know what they do for backlighting/illumination? They still dont offer anything other than white and black even though they advertise blue? Wow...thats cool. They promised us red like 3 years ago. And yellow i think. Even for a firebird it says it will light up like the factory camaro so what exactly does that mean?
^^well Camaro have blue film on the back of the gauges, and it lights up a lame yellow colo, unless you get white leds, then it will light up a light blue....I have red leds installed in my Camaro stock cluster and it lights up red, it all depends on what bulbs you are using behind the gauges

When I was rearended in my Z I was given a rental "Kia Optima" that I beat the crap out of but even that speedo said 180 or sumthin stupid like that and I maxed out that piece o crap @95mph lol. I like the 200mph overlays so when sum1 asks if my car is fast they will know by looking insted of having to take them on a highway ride scaring them and gettin pulled over.

even then it sounds a bit optimistic for a Kia.....
hey dont start bagging kias!!!! LOL i have a 2006 Kia Spectra sx-i bought it as a daily driver- and i freeking love that thing!!! Its hella fast as far as imports go.Its faster than the civic si, i raced my brothers 2007. It has a 2.0 litre dual overhead cam five speed- ive had it at 130mph i swear to god! And at 38mpg, im totally satisfied with the $9800 i paid for it almost brand new! And overall its a real tight finish and it doesnt make a peep at 90mph i never expected it from a kia. I didnt even mean to buy a car that day i went to wal mart for tin foil and bought a new car!! What can i say, im an impulse buyer.lol i guess tot he extreme. But i drive 150 miles per day for work and school and i was looking for a daily driver so.....thats how that happened. But i honestly love it,

Factory look during the day
Greenish color with 194 bulbs
It doesnt look that bad in the pictures but in person it was different
Color after installing "White" LED's
Once i get the car back on the road i will attempt to regain the factory look lighting.
And to whom ever asked you can get it for a LT1 if you have a 97. They have no plans to make the overlay for the 93-96 models.
