86-89 accord indiglo gauge for automatic!!

[accordgirl]

hey 3geez member,
i was surfing the net and found a website that would make a indiglo gauge for third gen automatic accord. if i get atleast ten people to buy it then they'd start the production asap. checkout the site at S/R Motorsports.com (http://www.streetracerparts.com/index.htm)

**This company is now taking pre orders for 86-87 auto guages and 88-89 guages. If we get 10 peeps together to commit to buy either set of guages, they will start production. The total cost of these guages INCLUDING shipping will be $57.99. I think that this is a very good deal.**

(Sorry for taking over your post.)

right on good find, I don't drive an auto but it's great news for everyone that does.....everyone should get on this.

[89AccordExi]

sweeeet...im down!!

[staticpat]

how much are they gonna run.

[accordgirl]

here's an update from streetracerparts.com;

Hello,
Well, we cannot start production on them until we get at least 10
people
willing to pay $49.99. As soon as we get the 10 people we will start
production, and then 3 weeks later we should have them available for
Distribution. Thank you!

Are they for 86-87, or 88-89 Accords? Also, are they only for automatics?

[THEBlakAcc]

word i'm already on the list.... whose gonna be next!!

[HostileJava]

They' d either have to be for an 86-87 or 88-89 because the 86-87 gas/temp gauge had needles connects to the guage in the middle and pointing to the outer part of the gauge and the 88-89 had pointers connected on either side of the gauge with the readings going up the middle of the gauge.

I did put my name down in case this all works out though.

[accordgirl]

the cluster that they use as a model i think is from 88-89 accord automatic because the temp and fuel needle is pointing outward unlike my 87 accord where the needle pointed inward. i'm gonna try to request an indiglo gauge made for 86-87 accord if we get atleast ten people. thanks!:D

[HostileJava]

Are you sure yours was never replace because mine is an 86 and the needles point outwards on mine.

[accordlx]

I have officially put my order in for the 2 color guages for the 88-89 auto guages and hope that we can get more people to get them asap.

[SiR]

Im in for my 87 auto!!!

[89AccordExi]

yes i signed up yesterday!!

[marc49]

it doesn't matter what year your accord is. That does not determine whether the needles point outward or inward. If I remember correctly, it's where you accord was built which determines the needle direction

U.S. built accords had the needles pointing outward

Japanese built accords had the needles pointing inward.



personally, my 87 accord has the needles pointing inward and it was built in japan and shipped over here.

So before you order, no matter what year accord you have, I would advise you to find out which version they are going to be making. outward needles or inward needles? hey, maybe you guys can get them to make both versions :):super:

[HostileJava]

Thanx for the info marc, I was starting to get really confused.

[hondaman87]

I'm down for one ether auto or standard, but I really need a standard, and it doesn't matter what year i have both inward and outward style needles any ways

P.S. try to order the one that has 6 colors insted of 2

[hondaman87]

have you by any chance tried the web sites

indiglogauges (http://www.indiglogauges.com)
and
nrauto (http://www.nrauto.com)

[accordgirl]

i have an 87 accord but i signed up for the 88-89 gauge because my gauge look like the 88-89 model.:super:

[accordgirl]

hondaman87,
i think the S/R Motorsports website are only making the 2 color gauge or the reverse gauge. if you want a gauge for manual, i think you have to ask S/R motorsports to put one under development if you can get ten people to buy it. or u can just get a reverse gauge for manual at procarparts.com, its more expensive but atleast you don't have to wait for it.:wave:

[MoonScryer]

Why do i get the odd suspision these gauges are going to be procarparts.com gauges just repackaged? Hmmm...hey, I'm a paranoid mutha, sue me :p

Sure hope they aren't, cause I wouldn't mind a pair

[accordlx]

They couldnt be repackaged ProCarParts guages because:
1) ProCarParts doesnt make 2 color indiglos for our cars, there's are 5 color reverse guages.
2) ProCarParts guages are only for automatics.
3) They are cheaper than the guages that ProCarParts sells by $15 EXCLUDING SHIPPING.

[87DXHatch]

You mean PCP guages are only for standard transmissions, not automatics... otherwise why would this thread be of any importance :D

[89 Accord Se-I]

im definately going to get them, i gotta get the money first, i just got a ticket im my accord today and im a little set back but you can count me in

[netfreak]

Does anyone know if it's possible to get those with KPH as the standard instead of MPH?

[gr3k0sLaV]

what about gauges in KM/H?!?!??

[hondaaccord_86]

can i borrow $57.99 from someone? please???

[Defiant[YD]]

the price is in US dollar isn't it? stupid canadian dollar.... :rant:
how much would it be for me then?

other way around ;)

[DBMaster]

Au contraire, my friend. My needles point inward and my car was definitely built in Ohio.

Maybe year AND country of origin figures in there somewhere. I have even seen some design issues that affected cars built before and after certain dates in the same year.

[accordgirl]

guys, we need 4 more people to sign up for the 88-89 gauge model and we'll have our indiglo in about a month. c'mon, just charge it on a credt card or something. i really, really want one! pleasseeeee???? :sadwave:

[Stefi-blueLX]

Yeah I know. Me too! Dammit!:burn: I signed up I think a month or 2 ago. I would've had them by now! I'm about to give up and just get the proparts ones. :( 4 people that's it.....it took about 2 months for 6 of us! Well 8 of us! ;) So if I do the math right.....I'll get them in.....round Christmas time! Waiting sucks!:mad:

[‹^› ‹(•¿•)› ‹^›]

ONLY TWO MORE NEEDED NOW!

[accordgirl]

:flash: guys:flash: ,
we finally get to have our indiglo gauge for the 88-89!!! :super:
i can't believe this, how long has it been??! anywayz, i'd like to thank those of you who placed an order (especially ones who were desperate and have no money and somehow got one anyways,hehehe...) racercarparts.com emailed me telling me that we have atleast ten people already so they're ready to start making it and they'll be contacting us regarding payment. hope it looks good!!:cool:

[TeKKnoTeKK]

I love you accordgirl ;)

[CASH24]

it is true!!! i got an email today from them saying we got 10, but i've been waiting so long i didnt believe it at first. Good job to all who participated

[Stefi-blueLX]

Alleluhia! (sp?) Thank God!!! And right at the time where I have little cash....I'll find some! Thanx to all who signed up! :bow: I'm so excited! Can't wait to get them in! ::dancing around in the computer art lab::

[Mike Me-z]

how can i get one?

[87accord]

check out the website on page one on the top:deal:

[HostileJava]

C'mon people we really need more people with the other style gauges to sign up. Maybe it won't be as big of a deal to develop the other style gauge once they have th first one's done since it's only one gauge face print that would have to be changed. I hope that's the case.

[87accord]

All you have to do is go to a junk yard and pickup some gauges from any year, but peferable the 88 89 with the gas and temp facing inward! reinstall into car and switch out the thinge that tell how many miles totoal in car ex me 164,420 miles with your orginal!:super:

[87accord]

this is a pic of what the inward gas and temp pointers are facing and then u can buy the 88 89 auto gagues and make sure the cluster u buy is auto:wave: :bow:
