Thanks.

Onestep, hats off to you for a job well done and I know how hard things like this can be to get accomplished.
Kudos! 
JohnIndeed, mine arrived late last week. The fit is very good and the color match is near perfect with my tan interior. Great job Onestep! Thanks for putting this buy together. Gary M. '99 SVT 'Tour '89 Taurus SHO '85 Mustang SVO

I went to the Ford dealership, and of course they have no paint. Everything would need to be ordered, and per the phone call to one dealer, Ford doesn't make it anymore...wrong; now you see why I hate dealing with anyone besides Bill Jenkins. I bought some paint from a local paint store. It's made for plastic trim and it was about $9.00 w/tax for one can. It's not the "exact" color of the trim, but it's lighter than the gray of the aftermarket pillar. I decided to just paint both pillars so they matched rather than painting the aftermarket one only which would have given it a different color than the other side. I went this route rather than trying to find a can that matched the color of the aftermarket one and painting the passenger side only. I figured, just find the closest color and paint them both. Once Bill gets back from the UK, hopefully he'll be able to get me the "exact" trim color I need. It's in and it looks good. Just waiting to do the taxes so I can get the gauges. John

Weren't they going to change the color on the Midnight Blue ones, because they didn't match?? I still haven't got mine, so I wonder if they are trying to get the color right??

You can still get them from Lo-Tek. www.gaugepods.com Yea the blue is slightly off in color. But it should be easy enough to paint to match. Hope Yall like em.
Please take everything I post with an MDOT trucks worth of road salt!  Please help control the TROLL population by getting them spade or neutered! 2001 Blk/Blk Cobra Previous owner of a '99 Cobra, and '00 SVT Tour
