Red lens Tripminder for sale November 11, 2010, 11:00:23 PM I have another Tripminder for sale. This is a Crown Vic/Grand Marquis unit that I have removed the brackets from. It is in nice shape with the words on the face not rubbed off. I currently have a red lens in it (for people with custom dash colors or whatever) but I can put the stock lens back in easily. $50 shipped with either lens, fox brackets, and custom harness for plug and play in most 85-88 cars.

Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #3 – November 12, 2010, 10:43:49 AM I ordered a big sheet of 1/16" red acrylic to make this one so I have plenty left over for future Tripminders and clocks too I guess. Quote Selected
Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #4 – November 12, 2010, 11:07:07 AM That red is sweet. I wish my whole dash was red. Do you rebuild these? I have one that has fuel flow issues. It's off by a factor of ten. Strange. Anyway... Nice work! Quote Selected
Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #5 – November 12, 2010, 01:55:22 PM Typically, I clean them up, polish the stock lens and flip it over to the non scratched inside (or replace it in this case,) clean the button contacts, repaint the lettering on the front if necessary (PITA,) attach correct fox brackets (most of the ones I find are from CV/GMs) and build a wiring harness for it. I don't know much about repairing the insides, sorry. Quote Selected

Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #7 – November 12, 2010, 08:59:18 PM Is it possible to get this with a green lens? My '88 SC has a green dash. I do like the blue but would like to have the same color throughout the dash and I'm guessing getting a green trimpinder would be easier than redoing the whole dash in blue. Quote Selected
Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #8 – November 12, 2010, 09:27:31 PM The pictures make it look alot more blue than it really is. Here is a pic of me testing out an unfinished unit and it shows the color a bit better. Sorry for the fuzziness.Also, I could order a green acrylic sheet and make a lens out of that, although the price would be a bit higher.Here is a comparison of the stock clock green and a sample of the green that I can order.

Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #11 – November 15, 2010, 11:21:20 AM Your clock and date and all that stuff? Quote Selected
Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #12 – November 15, 2010, 12:36:24 PM The clock keeps the time,but the date has to be reset every morning.If I drive off and on all day,it's fine,but after sitting all night,or all day,no date.Just the time and "reset" under it. Quote Selected
Red lens Tripminder for sale Reply #13 – November 15, 2010, 12:42:04 PM Wow, that is weird. I would think that it would lose it all or nothing at all. The one in my TC acts kinda funny too. It works fine and all but when you shut the car off the tripminder will stay on for anywhere from 5-20 seconds. Good ol' 80s technology/computers. Quote Selected
