Slater Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 OK, I am going to be making a cluster surround and would consider making more if others would be interested:This would be a simple and idiot proof install into all 850s, and looks nice. The pic above is the IDEA of what it would look like. It's obviously not made for an 850 cluster.I have no idea of price. I will have prices in a few days. I am guessing $50?I need an idea of material. I am probably going to say carbon fiber (yes real CF not fake), but I don't know if it would appeal to the most people because the interior is black and wood. I think black would look most stockish, but there are other choices available - Burlwood, Black, or Brushed Aluminum.Do NOT PM me. I am almost over my limit. Post here if you are interested.I would be fronting a LOT for these since a very expensive die has to be made to stamp them, so I need to know if this is something a lot of people REALLY want, or only a few people.- Slater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Tuning 850 Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Might be interested if you did this for the 99 S70's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slater Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Might be interested if you did this for the 99 S70's.←This would only be for 850s. You can't do 70 series because the metalic silver greyish plastic surround is molded into the clear plastic cover. You can't get to the plastic bezel surround without cutting it out. With 850s the clear plastic cover comes off, exposing the gauges in all their naked glory. I can post a picture to explain if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

855T Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I'd be interested in a cf one, but I'm not sure that I could afford one. Nevertheless, sweet idea. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slater Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I really dig the burlwood, very classy.←Well, I can't guarentee it would match the 850 burlwood 100%. But these would be made from a professional manufacturer of premium dash kits used on everything from Porsches to Cadillacs, so their burlwood should look pretty good.This isn't the best pic but you get the idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
