HVAC INDIGLO GUAGES (poll) Speedhut
Ok so I have been asking Speedhut now for a few months about doing the Reverse Indiglo Face plate for the HVAC controls like they have for the guages. I just recently got a reply from them saying they would be very intrested in making them but they would need 30 pre-orders to start the tooling. Also Mx3s will be the 1st and only cars (as of now) that will have them. Im not sure if SpeedHut will continue to produce them after the groupbuy or not. So as much as i can tell this will be a limited time thing after the group buy there will not be another chance to purchase unless Speedhut continues the idea. I will be sending them the mx3s HVAC controls this week.
Its exciting to know that the mx3 will be one of the 1st cars to be considered for this mod, since as you all know as well as i do that no one ever considers our car 1st for anything since there were so very few made in such a short time(if you compare to other imports).
So now we need to decide What style to choose on the HVAC face, There were 2 styles done in the mx3, Push button and Slider Nobs This poll will decide how they will be designed. IF i get 30 of each intrested i will send both designs off to Speedhut but i have to have 30 orders.<p>This is thread is not for bashing the idea, if some of you dont like the idea DO NOT POST! Keep your coments to your self. I am only doing this groupbuy once like i said earlier and i want it to be done flawless.<p>If you have any questions feel free to post, I check the board regularly every other hour if im not at work so replies will be quick(within the day posted)<p>Now i know you guys are wondering the big questions, Price? and Looks? As of now i am having them design them as Reverse Indiglo seeing how that seems to be the best looking and most popular, if they are successful they can create others for others needs and wants.<p>Again if you have any questions or concerns feel free to post or contact me at:

Re: HVAC INDIGLO GUAGES (poll) Speedhut
I am in for the slider type, i was actually playing around with the idea of changing the color on that the same way my buddy changed the color of my clock and hazard button on my previous car to blue. Amazing idea bro, i am in definitely. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: HVAC INDIGLO GUAGES (poll) Speedhut
i would definately be in for these for sliders, i've been wanting to make my HVAC controls match my reverse glow gauges since i got them and this would probably be perfect. btw, in industry HVAC means "Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning".
and if you need it, i have a better picture of the controls on my comp at home that i could get you.<p>[ September 03, 2003: Message edited by: Acamori ]</p>

Re: HVAC INDIGLO GUAGES (poll) Speedhut
yea jeff your right considering the slider style just has a lil menu strip going across the middle it would be easy to apply the indiglo face over it the push button style would be extremely hard to do
