My son-in-law recently gave me an item he purchased off eBay. The seller had no idea where it came from, but that it was kicking around in his garage for a long time.
In the efort to keep everything modern hidden, I needed to find a way of having the automatic transmission gear indicator visible to the driver, but hidden to the observer. I ruled out the DAKOTA DIGITAL (dash) unit due to it's modern appearance. My son-in-law picked this item up off of eBay. The seller had claimed it was "kicking around for years".
It is a billet rear view mirror that contains LED indicators for Park, Reverse, N, Dr. D & L as well as both arrows for the turn indicators & a high beam indicator. It fills our needs precisly. Our intent is to paint the machined area a creme or some neutral color to hid the billet finish. The problem is who made it? I need the schematic for it as well as the transmitter for the gear selection (which would only help me when I could decipher the wires. I sent for the newest DAKOTA DIGITAL catologue but there was nothing like it. I tried to "Google" it, but to no avail. This is an incredible unit & just what we need, but at this point, it's useless.
I sent an email to STREET RODDER asking if they might know. They were interested in the item, but had no clue of it's origin.
This thing will solve more issues for us than I can explain, but first I need to know....................
