Btw the lokar ones won't fit into the engine block dipstick hole unless there modified...and also have to be modified in other ways to read corectly



Ok and see if you can find this one?....just made it my self...let me know if anyone would be intrested.The ends come in different color choices of blue,red,aluminum.


Let me get a price together....Just seeing if there was any intrest out there.


P.s. the finished product would not be all scratched up like the one below lol

Correct me if im wrong but they do not have an aftermarket oil or transmission dipstick that will work with the w-bodys. Except mine

48.00 + shipping for the first 3 ppl that place there orders for the colorfull ones.Price after that will be 53.00 + shipping.The prices above are for group buys of 3.Still working on a better soultion to ''mount them''.personally i dont feel that a mounting bracket is nessary.I dont have a bracket holding the one on my car.



What do you guys think??



I am not making hardly anything off of these when you consider paypal fees,shipping costs (to ship supplys and the product to me) ect it is barley worth it for me to do...but they are a very nice piece and is the only option for an aftermarket oil dipstick that i know of.So i figured some people may appreciate that fact of the matter.

And we are certain these will read the level correctly, just like OEM?

Just out of curosity Scotty have you ever closely examined the stock dipstick and how it reads? Not only very mis-leading but also very hard to figure out.


I modify how the dipstick actually reads...and match it up with the stock one....so yes...btw the ones mentioned above are a lot easier to read.

So to set pricing straight-

''Lokar dipstick''
Group buys of-
2 @ 55.00
4 @ 47.50

''An dipstick''
Group buys of-
3 @ 53.00

*All prices are + shipping
** First 3 people that place a group buy for the ''An dipstick'' will recive 5.00 dollars off the stated price




The finial stages of testing are being done for the ''an dipstick'' and should be done by tomorrow afternoon. Will also be working on a possible dip stick for the transmission sometime this week.

Actually, I have. When I pulled my engine and tranny out I was kinda checking all that out.

One of the ST Louis club members put the Lokar on his GTP, when he put on the TOG's.
