Ok. I just got the phone with these guys. One thing that they neglected to tell me through all of this was that even though they at one time produced the SVT guages, they don't have a template to use for producing these.
We have two options. The first is send them a set of SVT guage faces to use. The second is to let them track down a set and divide the cost of that set among the buyers. I'm not keen on the second idea since we don't know how long it will take them to find a set and what it will cost. In the mean time, I'm going to try and find a set to send them. If anyone has a set laying around, please let me know. I apologize to everyone, I didn't know this was going to be an issue.
On a side note, it looks as if they may be able to start a buy in for the HVAC's. They had to check to make sure and are going to get back with me.

If they are just using the SVT gauge as a template, i'm sure we can find someone to temporarily donate one. I mean... i'm sure some people have these sitting around or in the classifieds... OR wa2tuff  Do you still have your stock svt gauges sitting collecting dust? Another thing perhaps we should create two seperate lists for the gauges and the HVAC, i think it would keep things a little cleaner...

If you want to take it one step further also add the Light switch plate as well in the complete kit. If you get the gauges you will ultimately end up wanting the HVAC and also want to convert all your interior lighting to blue LED's. Green and blue just don't look good together.
I would think a complete kit (Gauges, HAVC & Light Switch plate) all in Indiglo will sell easily. Getting 10 people for this complete kit should be a piece of cake! As I said before once you do the gauges you more then likely will want the rest. I just doesn't look right with out the rest.

I agree 100% but it will be pretty hard to get people to agree on this becuase some only want gauges or just the HVAC because they already have the other things. That is why i suggested doing these all as seperate GB's. The package deal just won't work IMO. But if it did that would be fantastic.

I asked about how many people could join in. They said that when they make a batch, they make 50. So up to 50 people can get in on this.

There are currently 9 wanting both Gauges and HVAC 
I say get a price for the complete 3-piece kit and see how many would be in then. I bet you would get at least 20 if it's under $100.
I already have the 6-color Indiglo Gauges and lost money for gauges/hvac in the failed GB last year. I will probably get both since there is a chance they would not match the color of my current set. I'll just sell my old set...only paid something like $25 off ebay anyway fro Elglow. But I'm also in the hole for ~$80 on the last GB
