Here's another one fellas! Some of you had been asking for these so I went ahead and created them as well. A ton of time went into getting these correct, but all-in-all I think they turned out well. These are "identical reproductions" of the original HVAC control faceplates for the model years 1988-1989. Removal of the original is similar to the earlier overlays that I offered here. Replace yours which may be worn out, or if your tired of the Star Wars Orange look or if your ride is themed differently perhaps with Mookeeh overlays then go with a new White one. The choice is yours: These are available in 2 colors. OEM Orange: http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/SQC%20Items/DSC01739.jpg White: http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/SQC%20Items/DSC01740.jpg Both are self-adhesive, just remove the original, clean the faceplate mounting surface align and apply the new one. http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/SQC%20Items/DSC01735.jpg *Please note the backlit portions of the buttons (i.e Economy, Auto, Up, Down, Fans, Defrost, Face/Floor Defrost etc...) will be clear, along with the small openings for the orange on/off LEDs when the adhesive backing is removed. I did make one tiny little change to these, but I don't think anyone will object, or notice for that matter. Pricing for either one of these items will be $25.00 shipped anywhere in the U.S usually within 1 day of ordering. My paypal address is: natallica@comcast.net *In the Paypal notes please provide the preferred color overlay along with you mailing address and screen name. DIsclaimer I assume NO responsibility in ANY damage done to your faceplate if you choose to purchase one of these kits for yours, I am only offering these (and these walk-throughs) as an inexpensive cosmetic replacement to old worn out buttons. Apart from finding a brand new unit (which is impossible) this is the only option that I can think of, so if you think you are mechanically inclined enough to dismantle and scrape glue and metal and clean surfaces...then by all means grab one of these kits. It's relatively easy to do if you take your time and be thorough in the prep, you should be happy with the results. No overlays will be replaced 'free of charge' due to faulty preparation. *Faceplate in photo not included Thanks Guys, lemme know what you think! -N8

O.K fellow clubbers natallica is back with something you'll truely dig! It took a little work to get these right, now here they are: Gauge Hood Lightswitch Inserts In your choice of 3 Colors to match your interior lighting scheme. OEM "Star Wars" ORANGE http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/SQC%20Items/DSC01786-1.jpg ELECTRIC BLUE http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/SQC%20Items/DSC01787-1.jpg WHITE http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff408/n8tallica1/SQC%20Items/DSC01788-1.jpg * It requires a little bit of care and a subtle hand while taking your existing lightswitches apart to remove the old ones and replace with these. Then again we all enjoy taking these cars apart to make them better, right? Just want to make you aware that there is a possbility that something may crumble or snap when you overtighten or strip the screws out of your 20+ year old unit. I assume no responsibility in the removal and application of this product into your switches. * * * With that being said, these will look awesome and compliment any interior lighting scheme, whether you're sticking with "Star Wars" Orange, or closely matching Mookeeh Indiglo Gauges...these are what you need to get it looking like new again. * * * Pricing for these inserts will be $20.00 /per set of 2 - Shipped ANYWHERE in the U.S usually within 1 day of ordering. * * My paypal address is: natallica@comcast.net *In the Paypal notes please provide the preferred color Insert... along with you mailing address and screen name. * * * Thanks Guys, lemme know what you think. If you like them let 'em know by leaving me good feedback here. -N8 ...More to come, hang in there!!!

I didn't see a good option elsewhere, so here's the deal. I paid to have a cover panel set up and made, and the CNC design is ready to roll out more for you guys. Prices include what they charge, shipping (around $5) + $5 each to me for gas money to pick up & ship. This is a must if going with Autometer or other aftermarket gauges that don't fit our stock gauge console. You can eyeball and cut one out, but not exact if keeping the turn signals and warning lights working. I'm not making money on this, just want to forward the good fortune of having a buddy that does CNC on the side for reasonable time & materials cost. For those replacing the stock gauge cluster with Autometer or other aftermarket gauges: 1/8" thick, CNC measured & produced black plastic or aluminum 2 bigger holes = 3 3/8" (for tach & speedo) and 3 smaller = 2 1/16" cutouts for turn signals & 9 warning lights on bottom to show clearly. No extra holes for mounting screws/rivot/etc - rear mounts for aftermarket gauges will hold it in place. Would be a great pairing with Outcast Horizon's Radio (what I'm doing ) kit: http://www.starquest...el#entry1088773 PRICING: $55 shipped for black plastic. $100 shipped for each aluminum. more $ for hand polishing of alum too, or could CNC a brushed pattern into the alum! powder coating available for a small price add-on (will get quote if interested) $5 off ship for each additional since they'll go out together. Ex. 2 plastic is $100 shipped, one of each $150, etc. This WILL require some cutting of the stock black plastic gauge front panel and white underlay as this panel will simply cover them, fitting snugly over top. I WILL be documenting the process of installing Autometer gauges with this panel, to show where to cut what, and which wires to use, eliminate, etc. DATES AND PAYMENT: Open for more orders. Please POST what you want here so we can hopefully combine orders when this gets bumped Send Paypal to: mstieg@gmail.com and INCLUDE your SQC NAME & what you ordered with Paypal $$ sent (in comments) so I know who is paying for what. Once received, I'll put in the order & keep you updated. Depending on their availability of material and time, these could take a week or two. (since this is a side job for them, which they are cutting us a great deal on). Any questions please ask!! BLACK PLASTIC: 1. taeisallin - paid & shipped 2. BOHO - paid & shipped 3. Sotty -paid & shipped 4. Conquestech - (2) 5. MTQuest - ALUMINUM: 1. Creakyjoints - (no 5 gauge holes unless notified otherwise) - paid & shipped 2. Skillz - paid & shipped 3.
