Default Pics 6LE Overlay Installed

I finally had time to install my overlay. Excuse the night pic, I was to lazy to get the tripod. I'm very happy with how it came out.

Yes, but it was no big deal...very easy. Used a fork to slide under them and pop them off.

And yes. It doesn't get driven everyday.

Ohh no i know how to take them off... I jsut hate to get them back on so they read perfect.

When i had a 97 GT i put on Cobra white face gauges.. And some of my needles never were at stock positions again


And nice. I wish i had that low of mileage.. I have 47K

I just installed mine a couple of days ago, just waiting on the LED's to show up, but i noticed the same issues with your raising in the top corners, i know i fixed the top left one by triming out a little bit of the overlay since where the bezel meets the actual cluster, it will push on the overlay untrimmed. I didnt really see a good way of fixing the right side though. Great looking overlay though, very nice stuff, other then having to make one hole and some minor trimming on that corner it was well worth the money, can't wait. Yours looks great

That looks awesome. I'm really tempted to get an overlay now. I saw Mitch's (zlover129) and they look great. Great product 6LE.

The lighting looks really good in the pics but I know the digital cameras tend to overexpose, how is it in "real life" - is the lighting strong and even or are there hot spots and dim areas?

WOW, that looks top notch man. im sure the car looks just as nice. i think its so cool that 6LE took the initiative to do all the things hes doing for the community. these new overlays are one of the coolest visual mods you can do to your car, period. so customizable, and so clean. props to everyone who has done this.
