Oh, I see.. they just replace the backplate of the gauge cluster with an EL strip... pretty straight forward upgrade... it would definitely improve the readability of the cluster.

Ragle, I like what you have done to your van. I have two small kids and am thinking about some type of rear camera system to see behind my van for safety reasons. I have also made many modifications to my 2003 Express van. Roof rack, custom bumpers, aux. fuel tank & batteries, Rock sliders, Etc.
They are detailed at:

If you would like to see.

There were some heavy metal cabinets installed, but I removed them all except 1 to use as storage. I finished up a lot of progress on tricking it out last night and will be posting pics as soon as I can get outside. I am using a GE security camera system as the back-up cam. The monitor fit nicely in the overhead storage bay, after a little cutting. Given how bare metal the rest of the cabin was, running the wires was easy. The 15" Exorvision touchscreen monitor is mounted on a center console metal cabinet between the driver and passenger. The computer is a Dell Optiplex GX270 fullsize tower, with a 2Ghz Celeron, 1 Gb RAM, 3 hardrives-1 at 10 GB, 1 at 40 GB, and the other at 60 GB.

Sorry, I can't help talking about the project whenever I can. What I wanted to ask is if anyone has knowledge where I can get a good OBD interface? The van is a 1998 G20, 3/4 ton 2500.

*EDIT* I found this link while snooping around -> http://www.aldlcable.com/

Since I am new to this aspect, can someone determine whether it is a reliable source of information? If it is, I will visiting Radio Shack today to make my cable.
