Sunny, you can ignore this as well! 200 1990

You would appreciate it? Really!

If you knew how to appreciate anything you would have heeded the wisdom of the board and would have fixed the problem yourself. Instead you ran to a rip off artist, IMHO!

This thread should have never gone with this many posts to begin with.
Yes the cluster can be change out in fifteen minutes with only two types of screw drivers! Oh, maybe some calmness and patience thrown in!

Maybe you should read some posts with Susan or Shaw. Her whole engine didn't run! She fixed it because she listen to her Dad of which I am sure was an elder!

This is not exactly a way to pay forward for help. It's not nice to tell some other Bricksters to store it here or somewhere!

We have enjoyed sharing knowledge for years to each other. Armchair and laptop friends, if you will!

We all have curiosities and most do led to having into two high paying careers in their lifetime.
A fact I have lived!
It's because we learn more from one another and network information to form a direction in our lives.

I am proud to know now that Amarin is a "real deal" CSI man, that can open up cars too! I have learned from him as well!

Just read Arts story, including General Colin Powell's fleet of older Volvos! He did not have to share that with us. Maybe Art is not enjoying this winters cold days but I am, for him!

I also helped make three "low light level" camera lenses for a 1930's high speed camera! Guess who they were for, George Lucas of Industrail Light and Magic!
Yes, that guys company, before these digital dream movies being made today.
Papier-mâché, phosphorus and some sprinkling of gun powder. Wham! An exploding asteroid or ship, slowed down!

He made the movie "Return of the Jedi" with them. I have a professional made picture of the lenses and a scrap aluminum body with the 16 start lead, that's over an inch long in pitch thread on it, put away!
I made up a special gear to change the ratio of the gear box of a CNC lathe to do it too.
I also had the help of a smart programmer too! That is co working and Networking!
George got those lenses cheap. $80,000, now that's in 1982 dollars!

It's called a open and public forum in America where help is offered just as openly!

You and I both have done things that make the world go around.
I suggest you don't saw the branches of a tree, until you see if it's a fruit tree or not!

We all need be shaded from time to time.
Thank you very much!

Phil
