| RE: problems encountered. True, production did take a lot longer than the usual. This is becuase it was the first time we had evr uner gone a co operative group buy. We constantly had feedback coming in from the 42 members of the group, which required action. Such as ammending logos, position of markings, etc. The face markings came from the Zsports 300km/hr dash. All markings were spot on at every stage through to production. So it could be that the Zsports dash might have been off. Installation: One of the pre requisites of the dial's design was that they had to be installed without removing the needles. Challenging but we did it. Instructions: The instructions were based on the installation of the prototype. We did not encounter the needle sticking to the face problem. This could've been casued by the double sided tape people use to adhere the faces is too thick. If in doubt you should get a professional to do it. Manufacturing: As per usual with manufacturing, first run of products always encounter unexpected complications. With templates on hand combined with group buying experience, you can expect a drastic reduction in turn-around time (ie. 1 month). We have changed the laminate used in the production process, purely for reduction of glare.
