New Gauges Feeler
Obviously this is a project that will take place once the Cold Air Intakes are tested and on the shelves, however I've already designed a new set of gauges and had them approved, and all that it's waiting on is the cash, the new gauge sets would be a complete replacement for the stock unit, not just faces a complete replacement. They would have the cool sweeping motion on startup that the legacy gt's have. here is a video,
The youtube attachment is being retarded so if it doesn't work here is the video http://youtu.be/1kTt02d6Pm4 Here is a rough sketch of what I'm thinking Manual Gauges Auto Gauges Also they would be able to have a color choice available. Basically what I'm thinking is that the left knob would switch colors on the gauges and that the background of the numbers and tacs on the gauges be lit white and that all the red surrounds and the needles be what would be able to change colors between red, blue, green, or white. Here is a set that the company has done for the Escalade  Price would be $275 and would be a plug and play replacement. Last edited by RSVX; 05-16-2011 at 09:00 AM.

Re: New Gauges Feeler
Looks good but if we would be doing an entirely different setup, why not go with something a bit more up to date, like the one for the Escalade ? We could also add some additional guages while we're at it, right?

Re: New Gauges Feeler
only issue you run into is having every other gauge that you add getting the info needed to work, it can be done. Anything can be done, however if you add more info to display it will need an additional input, if you've ever taken apart your gauges on the SVX you'll know that there are two plugs in the back that basically give the gauge setup everything it needs to display. If we want to add oil temp oil pressure etc, it would no longer be plug and play and it would require additional wiring.

Re: New Gauges Feeler
Okay, instead of hacking it up and adding extra things to the display, how about adding chrome and stuff like the Escalade then?

Re: New Gauges Feeler
Chrome surrounds and all that can be done as well, only issue is for each design I do I need to be able have about 10 made, so if we can get a good amount of interest in one or another then we can do whatever you guys want. Anyone else have any ideas??
