Very cool, and they kept in contact with me through-out the whole process giving me updates and stuff. I can't wait to get mine.
I agree, thats awesome they were able to get something going. And definitely +1 for the updates. Sounds like a real nice group of people. Thats how UltraRacingCanada was with me too when the super hatch project came out. +1 for nice people who get it done for the aveo

every 2nd gen aveo owner needs to buy one
Actually they said they would only need to sell 5 to make it worth the time developing them. Between the 4 forums I frequent for this car I think I can make that happen. Including mine, so 4 more to go.

what are the other forums?
i think i might get the red needles from them though, because right now i have the factory white needle (that light up green) on a white background, i think it might be hard to see

im painting mine orange to match my needles, though i dont know how this paint i bought will affect how it looks a night
thats not bad at all if they only needed to sell 5, hell even ebay could sell the 5 alone

Use car model orange paint. It works well. Only paint the top of the needle though, not the sides...this will create a glowing effect when your dash lights are on.

I frequent this one, AveoClub.net, Daewootech.com and I'm on a site with the Singapore guys called TeamChevySG.com. I basically joined that forum to stay up to date on what kind of mods/parts they're working with over there, but I think I've earned my place contributing some tech info to their board. Knowledge is no good if it isn't shared.
