just wondering because I sent them mine but have not heard back.
Just talked to them and they sent it to me overnight because I'm an idiot and need it for this weekend. Thanks again guys. sorry for me being in a rush.

Imagine the amp draw......
Then you let off of everything at once and take off...... *boom* voltage spike. If your alt is old (and most of them all are) the regulator won't absorb the spike. Most Sc's do a good job, but just like the window regulator, or the PS pump, or anything else...... it can start acting up anytime it wants to. First thing that goes is the led's which have a tiny silicone gate in them, then the micro bulbs in the climate which is what kills them. That's why I used 14v climate bulbs back in 2004 when I started messing with them. You can't spike something built to ride above the voltage potential.

Some people see the spikes, some don't. They are all the same car, but none are at the same performance level with the age factor. Brandon simply bumps the resistors to absorb the spike if you prove to have a car prone to them. Fixes it right up.

Big thanks to Lextech.org
They sent me my cluster overnight for me due to me being in a bind.
overall the needles cost me $116 shipped... maybe a little more, but since there is really no other option thats a great price.
