There will be no codes or issues. There is simply a plug in the back of the unit that you pull. Be careful then you pull the cluster out of it's location that you don't break the mounting point. I almost did with mine because the stud wouldn't pull out of the rubber grommet.

It's very simple and will take you about 30 minutes if you take your time and drink a beer while you do it.

sure do look familiar. good job erasing the watermark, slapping in a graphic or two and calling it your own.

+1 on that Typeone -- looks like a cutout of someone's designs slightly modified. Not so cool...

i think the problem more lies in the fact that it is his business that you took the designs from, removed the watermark from, ect.

you know its kind of how he makes some of his living. by selling them...

and that just really doesnt make any sense. how does putting more buell emblems on a buell compare to this? this is more like taking a buell, taking the decals off and changing the color then saying you built it.

Well I didnt know it was his business speak up and say so dont beat around the bush.I mean WTF im a mechanic not a psychic I removed them and will not post them again.Also I did make the ones I posted because I didnt see those exact decals anywhere else and nobody printed them out for me or gave me the ink and laminate.

Since I am no longer a BadWeb sponsor, I'm not at liberty to discuss details, reading the BadWeb Rules and Regs will shed some light there.

That's all I can say on the subject and appreciate you removing the mock-ups. It doesn't take a psychic to know when you've essentially stolen copyrighted material off the web. Especially material with a huge watermark across it.

I got your PM, thanks. I'm not pissed off, just trying to protect my work is all.

Actually the graphics look like yours also.
