We have been making them for 4 years.

They are available in white and silver. Ours are unique in that they install without needle removal.

Dewey,

In the next month or so, we will have THE streetable setup. Say goodbye to cylindrically shaped bushings, and the binding. We have an exclusive spherical poly bushing for the body mount ends which is completely bind free. We also will offer aluminum race only arms.

We have waited for quite a while to get them right (better than what is 'out there').

It's a milestone for us, since it was the goal of MacEwen Motorsports since the beginning. I definitely got sidetracked trying to get the white and silver face gauge applications completed. We now offer a complete range of dials from 1982-2002. Now the market is flooded with Taiwanese and Chinese knockoffs.

I never really liked white face guages, but this silver guage facing has promise. Especially since I ended up with a silver and black steering wheel and silver and black pedals that might look cool. Do you have any pics of the silver guages installed?
