Yeah, I know that happens. I'm sure that a good portion of people that plan on doing it at tax time will change their mind by then as well. It happens, and I'm not worried about it. I'm going through with getting it all priced out, and I'll probably make one to post. They would be on a special order basis anyway, requiring payment up front before I buy the parts, so it's not like I'm going to get a bunch of people commit, I order up the stuff to make a dozen of them, and I get stuck with them. Turn around time will be relatively quickly, though.
I'm going to make them reasonable enough that it won't be a huge difference between buying all the parts yourself, but it will be plug and play, which I believe will be of interest to a lot of guys. Plus it will have everything a stock cluster has, which none of the custom setups so far have.

I'm really curiouse to know how high the speedo will go.... If you make them with at least a 140mph speedo.... that might help sell them since those of us with earlier 3rd gens have a hard time getting clusters that go over 110mph...
Will the tach change colors when you approach and hit redline?
Also..... would these be for sunfires too.... or just Caveliers?

I'm very familiar with the Cyberdyne gauges, and yes, they're very nice. However, for a few reasons, I am not dealing with them. Mostly a cost issue, but since I'm also designing a complete drop-in circuit for the cluster, I'm pretty sure that either A) they wouldn't be interested in such a project, or B) they would be wanting to make it a Cyberdyne product.
I'm waiting on some news from the prototype shop and if all goes well, I'm hoping to have a few prototypes sometime in February. Here is a shot of the design I'm thinking of going with. Again, still working on determining if there is a signal for oil pressure, or just an on/off signal for the warning light, but if the actual pressure signal exists in the data stream, I'll put that gauge at the bottom right. I'd like some input on the design. Just for perspective, this will be right where the current gauges are. The factory warning light panels will be left alone for the moment.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Criticisms?

Question: How could this work for a 3400 swap?
