DUSTI unregistered Personal ScrapBook Admin Use	posted 04-25-2004 09:14 AM Anyone got chrome gauge rings on their cat ? If so where can I get them - I've been looking all over the net for a possible fit but unsuccesful so far. Any ideas - anyone ?

I rushed the install a bit, but love look and plan to redo it so the seams match better. It is an easy mod if you take your time to trim the pieces carefully.

Marty We, I should say Pat took a lot of small pieces and kept on cutting until she figured the right angle. You have to get in the car and bend low and then you will see the seem, which is thin. The price is right. The royalty checks will be rolling in soon. ------------------ Current mods: Mopar dual exhaust & front mudflaps; MacMotorsports Air Intake; Real Rod Air Patrol; Graphics by Balistek Designs; ($8) Chrome grille; Chrome tire valve-stem covers; Painted rear bumper lettering; Prowler Pro Gears; Synthetic Oil; Raybestos Ceramic Brake Pads; TGF Door Panel Inserts & Headrest Covers; SheepskinExpress Sheepskin Seatcovers; Grille Light; Pinstriping by Bo Boring; Painted Valve Cover; Window Tinting; Windshield Visor Banner; Front Bumper Removal / Relocation of Front Turn Signal Lights; Real Rod Transmission Cooler Cover, Sill and Carper Covers, Aero Front Covers and Roadster Rear Pan, rear bumpers removed; rear mudflaps; painted calipers; Prowler Products by Gary Drilled Rotors, front and rear; Painted tach; Jay's Aluminum Billet Center Caps w/shimmers, Chrome Lugnuts and Chrome Radio Bezel Shimmer; Dash Rings; Windshield Wiper Arm Removal; Fender Trim; Speaker Replacement; Painted Plenum; Painted Radiator Crossmember; Painted Rear Mudflaps; Air Patrol graphics.

obi-wan Prowler Junkie From:Los Altos, CA, USA Registered: Feb 2003 Admin Use	posted 04-26-2004 02:48 PM I'm the one that makes the dash rings. There highly polished alumium.and look like chrome. There made to look like old fashioned gage rings so the retro look is carried off. I use o-ring tech. to make them fit properly. I build the small gage rings in 4 sizes. ea. size is just slightly larger than the last one. I have a set of go-no gages that travel around the country along with simple instructions that only take about 5 min.s to use. You send my back the set of gages and the filled out instructions/order and I send you the correct rings. The large speedo ring is always the same size so there not measured. The reason for the difference in sizes is because the dash is molded plastic so there not truly round or always the same size. I went around to some 35 cars and measured them prior to designing these to find this out. My price is 250.oo. e-mail or call for further details. Scott Curtis (obi-wan) 650-967-3609

Richard Jackson POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Fairfield, Ohio Registered: Jul 2000 Admin Use	posted 04-28-2004 09:11 PM obi-wan, are your rings the ones that have been available for 4 years that were called "ZERO ALTITUDE" and originally cost $350? I am familiar with those rings and wondered if yours were different. Do you have a close up of the rings prior to installation? Thanks Richard

R Rodenfels POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Cincinnati Ohio Registered: Jun 2002 Admin Use	posted 04-29-2004 08:24 AM Richard, I emailed obi-wan yesterday with the same questions you have and have not heard from him yet. Hope to hear from him today.
jd2ksilver POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie Personal ScrapBook From:Mt. View, CA Registered: Jul 2000 Admin Use	posted 04-29-2004 09:50 AM I think I can answer for him as he does not get on a lot on here. These are made by him and his fabricator. Not the same ones you ask about. Like Scott said, he has templates he sends out so you can check the gauges other than the Speedometer, as that seems constant. You tell him what fits and he makes them up and have them polished. They are fitted with a groove and a O ring is installed for a tight fit. Pretty classy IMO. I didn't tell Patty when I got mine and the next time in the car her remark was "Wow that dash looks different, very cool, what did you do?" I should see Scott today, if so I will take some pics with the digital and post them uninstalled if I can. But you won't be disappointed.

Richard Jackson POA Site Supporter Prowler Junkie From:Fairfield, Ohio Registered: Jul 2000 Admin Use	posted 04-29-2004 11:56 AM From the pictures, they seem about 3-4 mm thick vs the other brand at 2mm and Obi's look more three dimentional and rounded as well. Richard
