Post Title: SurmanM's Custom Gauge Clusters for the Altima Coupe
Posted by: surmanm at 10:55 AM 12/3/2008

With LongBeachCoupe's help, I am now an OFFICIAL NICO FABRICATOR!

I have a degree as an electrical engineer, and with my electrical know-how and skill I am able to modify Dash Clusters, Start Buttons, Radio Units, and Window Button assemblies with OEM quality results!

No longer do you have to look at the stock "orange" lights in your car!

Heres what the Altima's STOCK dashboard looks like..

I can customize your dash cluster to a variety of colors and schemes to suit your personal taste.

Here is my BLUE dash cluster with white letters.
The Screens, the "rings", and the needles have been changed to BLUE!

Video:

Here is another BLUE dash cluster but with blue letters.

The BLUE start button..

The Green start button



Maybe thats not your taste... Maybe your looking for something more unique or a different color scheme...

Maybe your looking for something more like LongBeachCoupe's dash that he designed.
I changed the "rings" to BLUE, the Needles to a nice "White-to-Gray" fade, the screens to BLUE, and the numbers to RED.

I can change pretty much any of the lights/colors in your dash cluster to your specific taste and desire.... Green, White, Red, blue etc.... you name it and I can make it happen!

Due to the sensitive nature of dash clusters and the information they hold on your car, I will need to modify YOUR dash...

Q: Hey Surman, how am I going to drive around without my dashboard?
A: ALL MY STUFF IS DONE VIA a "Swap Service"...I will send you out a "dummy dash", once you send me a deposit for it($200), along with full payment for whichever modifications you want.
This way you install the dash i send you, and then you send me YOUR dash... I modify YOUR dash, then send it back to you. You remove the "Dummy Dash" and once you send it back to me I refund your deposit($200) for the "dummy dash"

Q: Hey Surman, IM IN! Whats the pricing for all this?
A: The deposit for the "dummy" cluster is $200, pricing for the modifications is based on a "a-la-carte" system meaning you only pay for the stuff you want done!

PRICING:
Dash Cluster: $350- Leaving your needles the STOCK red color
$475- w/needles customized to suit your taste

Start Button: $35 for one light
$40 with "engine" light
$50 for all the lights

Radio: $200 (this does not include HVAC (temperature and air conditioning)

Window Buttons: $70 (this includes both sides)

HVAC: $135

we can work out a deal

I have an 08.5 titan. Would you be able to change the lights out in it as well? If so how much would it cost, or is it same rates as you stated. I would like the gauge rings to blue as well as the needles, the radio and hvac in blue also.
