First of, special thanks to Diesel Tech for hooking me up with a suitable anodizing service. After less than stellar results I was becoming frustrated. With his recommendation I'm now really happy with the brushed/black anodized/polished/clear coated finished on these sample parts. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif
Pricing will be $125.00. To make payments easy, I'll flat rate the UPS ground shipping at $5.00. $125.00 + $5.00 = $130.00. These items will have a satisfaction guarantee. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif
You have your choice of:
1) Gauge or Attitude Mount.
2) With or without switches. The back of the non-switch version is pilot drilled in two places for those that want to use a smaller dia. light of switch.
3) Choice of finish: Polished or Brushed and Clear Coated or Black Anodized and Clear Coated. Special Anodizing colors can be quoted upon request.
4) The pictured samples will be on display at the TTS Power Systems booth at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, beginning Nov. 2nd. They will then be shipped to the first orders on the list.
I can begin taking payment/orders on 10-15-04.
(Paypal gtripp@earthlink.net) Credit card/orders will also be accepted by fax @ 661-297-3803 or phone, E-mail me your phone number and I'll return your call. An E-commerce Web site is currently under construction.
I will process these in large batches to maximize machine efficiency, with shipping to begin in 4 weeks. I will try and build some inventory during this time as well for future orders. I have a few more projects to finish for other companies for SEMA, hence the delay in shipping.
Below is a list of members, in order by date who have expressed interest.

Bowtie Boy 10-15-2004, 01:02 PM Trippin, does the mout for the guage have enough room for switches on the right?
Diesel Tech 10-15-2004, 01:08 PM Bowtie Boy
Both type mounts can have switches installed.
Harley99 10-15-2004, 05:32 PM Trippin
Looks awesome as we all knew it would. Being number 6th on the list I would have been number 1 on the purchase order, but alas I still think I need to wait for the locking cover additive. Any idea of when that might be in the offering? Just want to say that the wait has been well worth it, Lets just say that you and this site "ROCKS"
GMC-2002-Dmax 10-15-2004, 05:45 PM I think I need one with-out switches..........http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif

smshiver 10-16-2004, 02:45 PM Looks fantastic. I'll be ordering a black guage mount w/o

ok. I only get paid once a month.

HBruns 10-22-2004, 10:39 AM Brushed & clear-coat for me.
I'll figure out the payment sometime today or tomorrow.
HBruns 10-22-2004, 10:43 AM Question:
For the "no switches" mount, can it be easily modified to accept switches?
I seem to recall you saying that they can be, though I do not know the final implementation.
Would you post some pics of the back side?
Thanks!
Diesel Tech 10-22-2004, 12:00 PM The mounts with no switch holes have the backside of them center drilled. So if one was to decide to add a switch later all you would need to do is drill the mount from the rear side useing the center drill location to get you started.
CHOPJAW 10-23-2004, 06:45 PM Trip,
Those are really good looking units. When I get the edge, I will order one up from you.
Not to sound like a broken record
Good Job.
tophog 10-24-2004, 01:10 PM Anyone know if wires for gauges such as Autometer be long enough to reach the overhead console area?
baimpala 10-24-2004, 02:51 PM You have to wire the guages yourself anyway, so Autometer gauges will
reach anywhere you want. My problem was with the 1/8" nylon line
they sent for the boost gauge. If you tap on the passenger side
as I did, the line won't reach even to the A-pillar, so I just bought a
100' roll. If you get them, and need some line, let me
know. I'll send you as much as you want (even enough to put the
gauge in your trailer if you want).

Yes, I know you have to run yourself. I currently have AutoMeters in the A-pillar and did the install myself. I wasn't aware you can "splice" the EGT probe cable without causing problems. I assume this is not an issue?
baimpala 10-24-2004, 04:23 PM tophog,
I completely forgot to mention the pyrometer wire. You're
absolutely right, you aren't supposed to change the wire length on the
EGT probe. I have seen some folks have run parallel gauges off of
one probe, but that isn't recommended by any probe manufacturers that I
have seen. That doesn't mean it doesn't work. I haven't
tried it, so don't know if it really effects it much. I do know
that the pyro probe I got with my Autometers wouldn't make it to the
overhead console. . .
Thanks,
Dennis
coyotekid 10-24-2004, 11:08 PM I'm going to run into the same problem, as I ordered the gauge mount too. I haven't decided on brand yet, but I'm planning on boost/EGT, so I'll have to figure out the pyro probe lead as well.
Any ideas?
Diesel Tech 10-25-2004, 12:28 PM I have the Autometer gauges in my truck and the pryo reached just fine to the overhead mount. I ran the wires down the pillar on passenger side then out with the door wires, forward under the battery and onto the probe. I had about 6" extra wire following this path. I used a 12' hose kit for the boost gauge and had plenty extra with it. The pictures in the begining of this thread are from my truck so you can see the gauge models I picked.
ytmotorsports 10-27-2004, 07:44 PM is there any way that i can come pick up the mount? i live in northridge and would like to see the different options in person. thanks. -sean

You certainly can come and view samples and pick yours up but not until the second week in November.

Trippin 10-28-2004, 11:49 PM FIRELT,
I haven't shot that pic for you yet. I have been trying to hook up with a friend of mine that has an 02 console so you will get an accurate idea of what a brushed/black one will look like in your console. My apologies for taking so long. Saturday for sure. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley9.gif
GTFD736,
I did get your PM. It's just that the forum is slow I don't have time to wait for it to load up a return message. Email is better. I couldn't call during the day and I haven't been getting home until 8:00pm Los Angeles time. If you would like to use Paypal to place your order you can do so at www.paypal.com (http://www.paypal.com) and send to gtripp@earthlink.net. Other wise I will give you a call tomorrow evening.
STELTH450,
I did get your PM and am guilty of not calling you as well. Same "excuse" http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley9.gif on PM return. I will call you tomorrow evening.

Attitude Mount
Without switches
Brushed & clear-coat finish
with add'l contact info.
1sick57 11-03-2004, 08:04 PM Max Farmer, I've got the Attitude mount in my overhead console with no
extension cable. My Edge box wouldn't stick to the fuse box, so I nylon
tied it to the wiring harness behind it. This puts the box a little
closer to the firewall, and I routed the wire through the rubber
grommet the rest of the wiring goes through.
MaxFarmer 11-03-2004, 11:12 PM Thanks, Greg. I know I have a little bit of the attitude wire rolled up and zip tied to what i'm pretty sure is the same harness you're talking about... If I get some time and a little $ I'll have to get me one..
Thanks for the reply,
Jason
Max Power 11-03-2004, 11:39 PM The newer attitudes have longer wires then the older ones. For the older ones (ver1.0 for sure) you will need an extention.
MaxFarmer 11-04-2004, 09:25 AM Thanks Max Power, thats what I was looking for. I know I have a newer one as I was having problems with my box a couple of months ago and Edge sent me a new setup. Gotta love them guys!

Running just a little behind, as usual it seems, with this project.
Had to replace a rotary table and a low volt power supply in the middle of the run, but thats a whole other story. You "CNC" guys will know what I'm talking about. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley19.gif
I dropped the parts off at anodize on Friday. Pickup on Wed. and ship out Thurs. of next week. So basically a 1 1/2 weeks behind my projected ship date. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif

I just picked up the non switched versions from anodize today (about 2 hrs ago) not last week as "they" had promised. :confused:
I'm sorry to try your patience, would you like me to "overnight" yours at my cost? (approx. $25.00)
There are no excuses for me not meeting my projected dates, but outside processing (anodise and polishing) is killing me. Hopefully the quality of the mount, will in part make up for it. :o
I am building inventory so future orders will be prompt. :D

Must be nice... here i sit with no attitude mount, and you're busting a gut at this... nice!):h
D_Maximus 12-05-2004, 08:56 AM I'm wondering, in the plate with the switch holes, what are the switches typically used for? :confused:
I'd seen some reference to high idle switch, but that's incorperated into my 05 :D
I was thinking i should have a little patience, and get a couple thousand miles on before I juice the motor... any recomendations?
Thanks! :ro)
BLACKDMAX 12-06-2004, 09:13 PM My order is in !!. Hopefully it will come by Christmas. Needed to buy myself a present.

Redapple 12-06-2004, 10:50 PM Mine was on the front steps when I came home from work today. I offically have my Trippin mount, and it looks cool!!

Thanx Tripp! Job well done!

Trippin 12-07-2004, 12:03 AM Guys,
As it is getting close to the holidays and standard ground shipments are running 5-7 days at best. I will begin shipping everyone's mounts via 3 day select at my additional cost. This will be in effect until 1/01/05. All non-switched Attitude mounts have already shipped to individuals that have prepaid. If you have not been notified of a tracking # please PM me.
Switched mounts and Gauge mounts are supposed to be ready at the Anodize house in a couple of days. Censored .............And will be shipping then.
Thanks again for all your patience while I work through this Anodizing supplier problem. I just have a problem sending out inferior finished parts.:mad:
I have already lost one customer due to my inability to deliver parts and I respect his opinion completely. I don't intend to lose any more. I only hope he gives me the opportunity to earn his business again in the future.
I hope everyone will come to see the wait was worth it.
Thanks again guys,
Trippin :D
Got Juice? 12-07-2004, 12:21 AM Geez Trip, I was having second thoughts, but since I committed early on, I choose to stay the course!
Besides, it will look ohsocool up there Eh?
Just remember to tell your S/M.... "DON'T SCR3W WITH MY CD CHANGER CONTROL!"
Trip, you could have made the mount rotate shut like the Kenwood 'Mask' faceplates!
D_Maximus 12-07-2004, 09:59 AM I can only conclude by the non-responses, that my 2 questions (what are switches used for, and suggestion on how long to wait on new motor before Juice), were not worthy of reply in this forum.
From now on, I'll keep my questions to myself, or take them elsewhere. I didn't intend to bother you all.
Sorry for waisting your time. :(
chuntag95 12-07-2004, 10:42 AM The juice can be added whenever you are comfortable. Some have installed before driving off the lot. I would use the search feature as this has been covered many times in pain stacking detail and debate. The switches are whatever you need them for. I have set up one of mine to allow my Video system to be powered when the key is off. It allows me to fuel without stopping the DVD the kids are watch in trips but have the normal setup be only powered with key on. The second one can be used to turn on backup lights, propane, NOS, neon lights, high idle (which you don't need) or whatever.

Sorry for waisting your time. :(The switches can be used for anything........most may use them for a HI-IDLE OD lockout , NOS arming or maybe fuel/lift pump switch on/off.
It doesn't really matter...........if you like the ability to have switches there even if not used now it would be worth getting it with switches.
As far as you Juice question........everybody has a different answer..........some put it on around the corner from the dealer.
I personally Juiced mine at 7K miles..........
T:cool: NY
So...........Back on TOPIC we go............
Where's my mount ???????:p You know the special one...........):h

Sorry for waisting your time. :(sorry no one ansered you. some of us have to add switches for high idle and fog lights or what ever you want to switch. as for the juice I myself would wait for a thousand miles or so.
on edit welcome to the site
hdd-max 12-07-2004, 10:47 AM switches are used for any 12 volt acc. like N20 activation or propane injection or od lock out on early models or etc. you get the point they can be used for whatever you want ........As far as the juice I would wait a little while and break the motor in good first also you might do a search on the lly power adders as it looks like the predator may have the upper hand on the lly's as far as driveability, non issues and all out power........Welcome to the site
D_Maximus 12-07-2004, 11:10 AM Sorry, I was evidently feeling a bit sensitive on my last post...
Thanks for the input!!
Terry 12-10-2004, 05:53 PM well.

lets see installed pics........
come-on....................

Stelth450 12-11-2004, 11:20 AM Got my Trippin mount yesterday....thanks alot!! Looks awesome, thanks again Trippin.
tbyrne 12-11-2004, 08:37 PM Not sure if you received my e-mail but I sent one over on the 7th (might be lost in cyberspace). I'd like to order a black one :)

Sorry,
I was at the PRI show all last week. I used one of the "E-mail Kiosks" they had set up but apparently the reply I sent you didn't make it back. Give me a call at the Phone # on the web site and I'll get you taken care of.

JIMPRU 12-13-2004, 11:13 AM Trip,
JIMPRU 12-13-2004, 11:15 AM Trip,
Not sure if you recieved my e-mail either but I would like a black one no switch version also.

Hired Gun 12-13-2004, 11:44 AM Trippin can you get the polished ones with switches? I looked through each page, but did not see anything.
Stelth450 12-13-2004, 10:14 PM Any of you guys looking for a edge mount, definately go with the Trippin mount. It is awesome. Trippin you did a great job....the fit is superb. Looks like a factory option.
Trippin 12-14-2004, 12:00 AM Trip,
Not sure if you recieved my e-mail either but I would like a black one no switch version also.
jimJim,
The non-switched black Attitude mounts are in stock. I can send immediately. Go ahead and call me with a credit card or do a paypal transfer and I'll send it out.
Guy
Trippin 12-14-2004, 12:02 AM Trippin can you get the polished ones with switches? I looked through each page, but did not see anything.
You sure can. Attitude mount or Gauge mount?
Trippin 12-14-2004, 12:03 AM Any of you guys looking for a edge mount, definately go with the Trippin mount. It is awesome. Trippin you did a great job....the fit is superb. Looks like a factory option.
Thanks! :D
I'm just sorry it is taking sooooooo long to get them to every one. Censored
renagade 12-15-2004, 06:44 AM Nice product mate. Can you add a cover piece to it that I could snap on it when I go to the Stealer. Mabey a flat panel with two dummy switches. I like the concept. The only drawback to me would be tearing off the console everytime warrenty work is needed. I wouldn't mind paying more if it was an option.
Trippin 12-15-2004, 04:14 PM Finally the "switched" mounts are done. I will be shipping them out today! Check your PMs later this evening for tracking #. Thanks again for your patience! :D
Hired Gun 12-16-2004, 10:47 AM Thanks for the reply Trippin!
Got Juice? 12-16-2004, 11:42 AM TY to trip for the PM
I am sure they will be worth the wait.
killerbee 12-20-2004, 01:00 PM Trippin
What are the switch options? Looking for 3 postion switches, on-off-on
Trippin 12-20-2004, 02:22 PM Trippin
What are the switch options? Looking for 3 postion switches, on-off-onI only have the one style switch. Off-On-Illuminated dot when on.
However, you could use anything that you want. The hole is .780 in dia.
Or perhaps order without switch holes and...........
coyotekid 12-20-2004, 04:43 PM Have you been able to ship the switched gauge mounts yet? I was just wondering if mine is on the way. Thanks!
Trippin 12-20-2004, 06:55 PM One of the things (among many) that I did a terrible job of was matching screen names to E-mails I received via Paypal or credit card payments. PM me your name and I'll send you the tracking #.
At this point all of the orders should have been shipped.
dmaxalliTech 12-20-2004, 11:06 PM Got both of mine in.... I installed the customers mount and then we had to clean out his cupholders because we were drooling all over them.... I also put in an ODLO switch and LED in it, very sleek...
Cant wait to get mine installed!
Excellent product Guy!

Excellent product Guy!
Glad you like it. :D
akdiesel 12-21-2004, 01:16 AM Guy,
Very nicely done. When you say it will be here you were not kidding.
I like the black against the charcoal interior pieces better.
Both the views are from the drivers seat at eye level.
GRMax 12-21-2004, 07:26 PM Eric set mine up and its wonderful! The switch set up for OD lockout/LED is a really nice touch. Very sleek indeed.
Mounted my Panel today..........
Simple procedure,Awsome fit,Looks great..........:ro)
Trippin, Youve done a awsome job on these panels.
We look forward to your next project:rolleyes: Maybe something for the lower console.
Check my sig... There it will stay:cool: ..........Later
fireresource 12-31-2004, 01:59 AM Ordered one today...can't wait to get it. They look great! Keep up the good work!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/images/smilies/rockon.gif
Plus, I couldn't pass up on the 3-day shipping promised on all orders placed until the end of the year!
trpr4mance 12-31-2004, 12:14 PM Just Sent Paypal For A Mount For Attitiude With Switches In Polished.\
Thanks, Tim
eunrein 02-12-2005, 01:52 PM Can anyone tell me how the driver's side window trim (w/speaker) comes off on a 2005 Chevy 3500?
Working on running the wires from Trippin’s great looking Attitude Mount and don’t want to break anything.
Thanks in advance!
renagade 02-12-2005, 02:53 PM Pull on it gently. It snaps on and off
eunrein 02-12-2005, 03:24 PM Thanks much, I thought that was the trick, but wanted to be sure before going any further.
ZR1160 02-12-2005, 04:17 PM gee I wish I knew it was that easy, i used a prybar and a maul!:grd:
Nohto 02-17-2005, 08:33 PM The shop installing Attitude on a 2005 3500 HD ext. cab, said that the opening for the console was smaller than the crew cab and the attitude would not fit. Is this true? Does Trippins fit the Ext. cab? If it does do you have any in stock (Trippin)
Diesel Tech 02-17-2005, 08:49 PM I have seen several in extend cabs so I do not think you will have any troubles. I've got a couple on the shelf if Trippin's out and should have more in next week.
Nohto 02-17-2005, 09:06 PM No cutting ov the consul is needed?
Diesel Tech 02-17-2005, 09:14 PM You need to remove the black plastic inner liner. To do this remove the console and look at it from the top side. You will see where the factory has melted the plastic over the liner in three places, just like rivets. I use a 1/2" drill bit by hand to remove the melted plastic, then lift out the the black liner. Doing it like this allows you to use three metal screws to put the liner back in place if you ever want too. Once the liner is out just install the mount (with attitude install to mount) by pushing it in the front opening until it stops. Then replace the console back into the truck and run your wiring.
socaldiesel 02-17-2005, 09:40 PM Nohto,
Do you have the sunroof option? That makes a difference, the opening on a sunroof console is about 1.5"
Diesel Tech 02-17-2005, 09:45 PM Socal is correct if you have a factory installed sunroof it will not fit.
Nohto 02-18-2005, 01:21 AM Yes sir, most definately have a sunroof. What are my options then??????
Nohto 02-18-2005, 06:49 PM Okay, I guess I will come up with something myself.
gearhead 02-19-2005, 09:52 AM Okay, I guess I will come up with something myself.
I would give TRIPPIN a PM. he is the one who made the other ones.
socaldiesel 02-19-2005, 11:49 AM Yeah Trippin did say that if someone was willing to send him the upper console for a little study, then that person would possibly be deserving of a free mount. Might have to think about that myself.
Trippin 02-19-2005, 01:32 PM Sorry Guys,
I've been down with the flu for a few days and haven't been on the board. :(
I just need a volunteer with the sunroof console to send it to me.
Jeff@SGLC 02-23-2005, 12:08 AM Trippn,
Very nice units. I'll have to order one for sure...not sure if it will be gauges or attitude. I'll have to see which truck my dealer brought in for me, I had about 10 to choose from and one had a sunroof.
What other things have ya machined up?
Trippin 02-23-2005, 02:04 AM Thanks Jeff, I've got a couple of things to release in the near future as soon as I finish the final test fits.
BK Tool 02-23-2005, 01:33 PM Freak'n WOW!!!
Overhead Gage Pics (http://petefredette.com/Overhead.JPG)
Just got my Trippin overhead mount. Nice workmanship! I ordered black w/o switches.
Using Autometer Ulrta-Light from Diesel Perfomance Parts.
The black mount makes a nice contrast to the silver gages. It also matches the black push button switches for the overhead lights. I will post a picture here when I get home.
Plus when I add some black rocker type switches in the Trippin mount, they will blend in.
Did I say Freak'n WOW!!!
ps Support the Vendors!!!

What are the switch options? Looking for 3 postion switches, on-off-on
Did you find what you were looking for?
I found a supplier of switches that look very close to the ones Guy supplies.
