here's my original post at the gto forum which, go me an email response from JHP, the australian distributor who, it turns out, gets the units from GM...they are very good folks to work with too...they are sending me glass lenses at no charge...
"ok...its one thing to pay 400.00 bucks for this pod and gauges.
it's another thing to wait 4 weeks for them cause they are back ordered...
thats ok...
its another thing, that you have to tear out the center console, spend the money and order a radio removal tool (it should come with it....)
I can live with this....
but i can not live with the scratches on these lens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i never touched them when they got here.
i used zaino show car polish plastic polish.
i ordered Novus plastic polish #2 per recommendation of someone here.
I polished them using CD clothes, the most non abrasive cloth you can get.
I rubbed lightly, i rubbed alittle stronger, 3 nights in a row now..and still........
scratches.
i like my cars to look their best. when its sunny out, and someone bends over and looks in the ****pit..what hits em in the face? scratched up lens covers for the gagues...... come on.....this sucks.....poor quality is all I have to say......very poor.....
could some of these be on the inside? if they are, has anyone taken the thing apart to polish the inside of the lens covers?......
wolfdogs aint a happy camper"
