Let's get a meet together for Sunday, we've got a couple new people so let's welcome them into the sciko family.

Open to suggestions as to what we do but I'm thinking eating at steak and shake or culvers to start.

I'm down for Culver's if its between those two. I know if the better half comes along she'll have an easier time finding vegetarian eats at Culver's too.

So culvers around 6 okay with you guys? We can do something after if everyone wants. Could go to champs and do some laser tag again but it'd be more fun if it was all us. Last time it was us vs tiny kids that were little demons

I'm game. I assume we're talking about the Culver's next to Meijer? Also, anyone have a scikotics di-cut they want to donate to my blue box?

Looks like the laserzone ends at 7 for Sunday's.

I've got one in my glove box but it's kinda old. Hopefully it'll stick. If not Cosmic has the image on file and can make them.

Ok, if I have the time I might stop in to Cosmic and see what's up.

I don't know if the guy who cuts vinyl is in on Sundays but it might be worth a look.

Had a great time yesterday, look forward to the next get together.

Josh, let me know what it would cost the get that LED swap done if you're interested in doing it.

We could do another install meet to get a handful of things done. I know Ben has acouple things coming up soon and I've still got my sway bar sitting a box.

We could do a get together at my place. Near Lowes/Wal-Mart on Man Of War. Fairly level, minimally used street out front that's game. My jack stands and jack are still in storage in NH. Otherwise I'm not apposed to going to someone's place either. We've got space and I can cook a pie of food. It summer, the tie of year we should be enjoying the mod friendly weather!

Also, Josh and Nathan, if you guys got any shots of my xB could you post them up for me to poach?

An install meet at your place would work. I think both Josh and I have jack stands.

I'll see what I got tonight and post up unedited pics.

Right on, would be fun. Depending on when during the month it happened I'd have the coils, LED's and Borla to sort out. Anyone else have any projects?

Here is the info from the gauge parts post in the electronics section for a b I found. Not sure if there is a difference from a gen 1 to a 2. Probly better if I look at yours and make sure and also see what colors you want where.

Hell, at this rate the intake might happen that day since its still "processing" and not shipped. Might have the give them a call in a couple days. :bangin:

Ya Josh, what ever you want to do to figure it out. Let me know what I can do to help. Tonight I'll see what I can find out, getting ready to head to Toyota at the moment so I can't spend the time. Basically, I just want a blue gauge cluster if possible

2011 gauges are a lot different than the gen 1. Gen 1 has that real small central gauge with a couple small gauges and a LCD for the odometer. The 2011 has 3 LCD screens and 2 needle gauges.

I would think the HVAC should be similar since it keeps the same basic setup, 3 knobs.

Any updates on pictures? (says the guy who forgot his camera...)

I don't think I got a good one of yours but I'll check tonight hopefully when I can get them off my card.

I'll check and see if I can find out how many LEDs you'd need for your guages and all if not we will just have to look at the guages and look myself.

You want solid blue or do you want like a 2 tone effect like I have?

Solid but I'm starting to wonder if the blue might be too dark.

DeadCannon
06-07-2011, 02:24 PM
I think blue with white needles would look good.

Hmm, they would probably look clean. My only concern is if they're dark I'm not seeing sh*t at night. Would have to figure out (Got a link to some lit up Josh?) how dark they are when they're on. If they're bright enough to see the gauges then I'm all in provided Josh is cool doing most of the work since I'm clueless on what it entails.

Wrong car but I figure it should be similar.

Works for me. Looks clean, I'm down.

Nice. I think the only one I saw that I wanted was the one I took but I didn't really see any of the others so if you see any other shots than that one that you like post them up. I'll return the favor next time I have my camera.

DeadCannon

I lied :( Everything I shot was in RAW (.CR2) and I don't have anything that can even view them at home. I'll have to wait until Ashley gets home before I can even look at my pics.

Stop by my place tomorrow after work if you want and I'll convert them all if you'd like. Interested?

Got a few decent ones. Didn't go into much detail on editing though.
