    Rocketman Gauges Info

    Hi,  I saw this post on VMF and thought that some of you might be interested.  Since it's a long post, I'm just linking to it here.

    That is some serious bad stuff to happen to anyone. My gauge is on his list of things to do. It can wait.

    Re: Rocketman Gauges Info

    I guess my hunch to move my butt and finally send my gauge in was right.  Did mine last September.  I bought an original off of EBay to convert to volts so I could keep my original. (WHY do I DO THAT? It’s just more clutter!!!)

    I really feel for the guy’s bad luck but, at the same time, wondering if I will ever get my gauge back. 
    It was due to ship April 24.

    It’s a good thing I am in no real rush to install the gauges. Hopefully they get shipped, at some point.
    I think Greg is waiting for one, as well.
