Stainless Gauge face. and extra gauges

I just ordered the stainless gauge face overlay from performanceproducts4trucks made by US Speedo. Does anyone have any pics of this installed in the FJ? If so please post pics. Also please post pics of any accessory gauges you are running? Voltage for dual battery, oil temp, etc. I'm gonna be dressing up my interior soon and i'd like to get some ideas.

Re: Stainless Gauge face. and extra gauges

Looks nice but holy crap that little piece of metal is expensive. I guess I can't really say anything...I just paid $400 for plastic (Bushwackers), lol. If I were you, I'd change out the lights back there to some LEDs or something too.

Re: Stainless Gauge face. and extra gauges

Yeah, its pricey but hell, I've already pumped like umpteen thousand into her. It is hard to say no to such a pretty girl! I'll post up some pics once it goes in. They said it will probably take a couple weeks to arrive because they don't stock them and it isn't a large production item so it has to come directly from the factory. It should look pretty sweet!

I think you have the honors of being the first!

(Hopefully this post doesn't violate any forum restrictions, please contact your favorite vendor for purchase info)

I sent this picture file to several FJ authorized vendors here. If your favorite vendor here does not have it, I might of missed them unintentionally (they can get it for you).

Anyways, I'll leave it to "Toledo FJ" to introduce the installed photo, but here is the official catalog pic that the vendors just received. The FJ stainless gauge face is the most detailed piece we have ever produced and has a trick 3D effect to give it depth. Center is a "spider web" effect which doesn't photo well. Night time look is stunning.

BTW - I will be at the 4 Wheel Parts Truck Fest in Denver July 12-13 for those of you heading West to Ouray for your FJ outing.

Re: Stainless Gauge face. and extra gauges

I got it, I had to send it back because they sent me one for an auto and I have the manual. They sent me the correct one but it hasn't arrived yet. I'll post up pics when I get it in.
