Not me! But surely look like OEM and this is the reason why they are so much expensive! If they were around 500USD I would definetely order one or two!

Well the parts alone are more then that. They are closer to 700. The rest is labor. It is all made by hand. The wiring harnesses, mounting the gauges, matching the gauges (yes, the displays vary from batch to batch). So time is money.

there is a thread on how to make these your self, so use the search. The main reason that we have them listed on teh web site, is so we don't have to anwser the e-mails about them. You know, Where is those cool gauges, how much are those cool gauges, ect......

Really it takes a lot of time to make these and our time is very limited. Remember everyone involved with Rick's have full time careers. To top that off, we all travel as part of them.

Stratocaster,

Can you give me a price for these gauges installed on my car? I'm in NYC, so I could drop off my car in MD (after I have taken delivery on Laborday).
