    I am working on becoming a vendor right now, and am also working with John at PTP to have my lighting kits for sale on his site. My kits have been sold over on srtforums, and they were received quite warmly. I am still in the researching phase, but plan to have some concrete numbers here by the end of the week. Here are a few shots of a cluster I did with blue lighting and blue HVAC controls, but when all is said and done, I plan to offer color options without the necessity of sanding the green off the stock face and I plan to offer these at a more affordable price than the few competitors that are out there. Anyways, on to the pics:

    They look nice...

    Not to sound like an ass (usually how I am lol)... but who are you? And who is John from PTP? He is not a Vendor here either.

    Did you send me an email already?

    Thanks and welcome to the "C"

    No trouble at all.

    A friend of mine got the vendor prices from you (I think it was from you, either way, I know he has them), and i am just waiting to get the pictures and everything ready before I apply for a vendorship.

    Sorry, I figured most people would know who PTP was (pretty large SRT-4 vendor). I just wanted to sound a bit more credible, so I figured I would mention that I am working with a respected seller in the SRT community.

    Thanks for the welcoming!

    Are you all looking into the LX clusters ?

    The Nav uses Yellow LEDS and the HVAC uses some mini hologen bulbs as I recall.

    I am going to start working on cluster mod myself soon ( I haet sea foam green )

    I'll be talking with John on the phone this week, I'll mention the forums and propose another joint vendorship with him and see if he's interested.

    I haven't looked into the LX clusters at all. For starters I would only be selling srt-4 kits, but I plan to progress into new waters over the summer. My problem is I don't have any connections with people owning other SRT-powered cars, so it makes the R/D aspect quite difficult.

    Thanks a lot for the warm welcome. Other srt sites (that will go unmentioned, yet I'm sure you all know the one that I am talking about) were not nearly as welcoming or as helpful as you guys have already been.

    The lights are supposed to come in today, so hopefully I will have some more number and pictures for tomorrow.

    Thanks again.

    By the way, nice car lineup you've got there. I was really looking into the charger and magnum SRT-8's before I picked up my terminator. I really love the Hemi and also enjoyed the ride and interior of the SRT lineup.

    It's ok, we do not discriminate against SRTForums, ChargerForums, 300CForums, CherokeeForums, or any other. No filters of any kind either. Forums are NO secret. lol
    Thank you sir. Yea, Chrysler has come a long way. Great all around whip. The new Caliber SRT4 is awesome as well.
    yea, Kym will LOVE you long time for purple. lol

    Just finished checking the white/blue/green colors. They all came out even better than I expected.

    As for red and purple, I got those as well, but they aren't as bright as I want because of the green film on the back of the stock gauge-face. I am working on trying to find some superpower LED's, but it's hard to come up with anything that will be bright enough and still affordable.

    Looks like red/purple might not be available without sanding the face down...but I will keep working on it, and see what you guys think. If you all say the red is bright enough, then i'll sell those and the purple and the first few customers can tell me what they think.

    I will have pictures of the blue/white/green up tonight.

    Okay, here are some pictures of the cluster colors (green, white and blue) and the trunk/dome lights. Don't have any of the HVAC yet because I'm still waiting on the bulbs, but I will have some of those up by the week's end. PICTURES WERE ALL TAKEN INSIDE OF A CLOSED GARAGE, WITH NO FLASH OR ANY TYPE OF EXTERNAL LIGHT SOURCE.
    These are the green cluster, I think they came out VERY well:

    Here is the White cluster (looks very simialr to blue but notice that the redline is retained, it looks more of a "cool blue" if you will, much lighter than the other blue):

    Here's the blue cluster, I still love the look of this:

    Here is the blue trunk light:

    Here is the white trunk light:

    And here's the white dome light from many angles...this thing is seriously the brightest light I have ever seen in a car; it EASILY lights the entire vehicle interior:

    As mentioned before, I am trying to figure something out for red bulbs, and maybe even some purple...but I am having a lot of trouble so far. Anyways, let me know what you guys think about these!
