FTO2sxy,

I have just spoken to them again regarding your query.

They will charge you $350 regardless. Think of it this way, we are going into a group deal they are already giving us a good discount. I can understand that they need to make a buck out of this too.

Think of it this way, you are deviating from the rest of the group, the normal price is $450, and if you were to not get the centre dials installed by them, I think they would give you $50 discount at most, $100 if youre lucky but that comes back to $350 anyway.

If you install the centre console yourself, you will forfeit the benefit of warranty. And apparently the dial faces are quite fragile and need to be handled very carefully.

Why do you not want them to install the centre console?

Can you guys e-mail me please at jiwan @ ozemail . com (without the spaces) and we'll work out the details for a group deposit.

Come on guys for $350 you can totally change the look of your interior, just need one more person.

If you are worried about stuffing up the needles etc. I heard they do not touch them, plus you get warranty anyway.

I don't know what the fuss is all about??? For $350 I swear this is a good bargain as 02NV & I brought the dials for $500 each, consider flight cost 2 melbourne as well so i guess is ok.

Anyway i've got some pics of the dials as well! Funny no one remember i had the same dials as 02NV, which I posted a link on this site 1wk before Micky got his! Mine lights up purple at night, I yet 2 take the night shot of it, hmmmmm maybe tomorrow, so u guys can see the different colors that these guys got 2 offer!

Just click on the following bloody long link! heehehee

To those getting in on this deal my vote is for black text and the possibility of an FTO logo on the bottom of one or 2 of the dials(ie tacho, or tacho/speedo)(as discussed with G1 who will hopefully find out tommorow)

Suggestions/Opinions?

Ok I just spoke to E-tronics, its extra $10 for the FTO logo, but this has to be a unanimous decision between all of us.

FTo2SXY if you really want in, you better e-mail me or privde me your e-mail address.

Ok last chance for anyone who wants the dials for $350 + $10 for FTO logo. This price includes fitting. and includes the centre smaller faces for clock and voltmeter.

I am finalising it by tomorrow.

The backlight colour choice is totally upto you, everyone has opted for blue/green. The dials are white with black writing, and we have asked to put on a FTO logo on the tacho.

I'll find out price for just the parts and shipping to Perth.
