Their lug nuts are still acorn style but a wider contact area. I have some Ford lug nuts with a similar wide contact pattern.

Electric, Gauges, & Lights / Re: RT-Eng Instrument Voltage ...

Thanks Dino for the heads up on where to order the IVR4.  I ordered one a few minutes ago.  I looked up the address for RT-Eng and it appears to be a private house.  I guess this is a true garage shop operation.  Doesn't matter to me.  I'm just glad they are still offering the IVR4. According to the his website, his regulator is superior in several ways to a 5V regulator constructed using a LM317T 12V to 5V DC to DC voltage regulator described in the Aug 2000 issue of Mopar Action Magazine (probably lifted from the National Semiconductor Linear Integrated Circuits Application Manual).
