the thickness isn't much, just enough to fit behind the cluster

:shrug: He is making me a set of led dash lights now. In exchange for powdercoating some of his parts.

They should be on the way soon. I forgot about the past incendents and didnt catch the name untill now. But Thats the past, maybe he learned his lesson.

I hope he comes through for you. I paid him for a set on 6/28 and haven't seen anything yet. First, they were supposedly going out the following week, then 3 weeks went by and he told me he'd gotten called away on business, but they would go out ASAP. Now today he tells me they did go out, USPS must have lost them. He says he'll make me a new set and give me a tracking # when he ships them on Monday, but I'm not holding my breath. I had read that on the homepage months ago and forgotten about it, never realising it was him I was dealing with. If I get mine, I'll post it here. If not, email me @ rdmsqito@optonline.net and maybe together we can get somewhere.
