Hey there:
I'd like to install a Digitool in the Dash Unit. Gotta
get one first..as building one is beyond my electrical
skills (as in none!)

I'm not set up to produce these...but I know guys that
can. I'll get the mold to them and find out what it
will cost (CarbonFiber is not cheap.)

Cheer!
Kevin
