Good set of gauge overlays What gauge overlays are there out there that you have really easy installation because from what i have read a lot of people have had troubles with the needles not being in the right place. i dont want to go through all that.

These are three pieces so you don't have to remove the needles to install. You can also use the Firebird bezel/lens with them: http://store.specializedstainless.co...-2002%3AGauges

You should take the needles off anyway and redo them. According to aeroforce and scan tool, stock needles dont seem to be very accurate. 6LEs option is you best bet. If you dont want to pay the money, then I would look through ebay.

6LE is the way to go. I still need to do mine with some LED's. It's worth extra money to get them customized. I have a silver ring around mine and my SS build # where "RPM" should be. They're pretty badass but I haven't learned how to remove the needles yet.

^^^ I can remove the needle pretty easily (i've done it a million times, and I'm actually starting to reproduce them in custom colors), but the trick is to use a fork. Bend one of the middle prongs back and viola! A needle remover.

I used 2 spoons... one on either side to pry them up evenly. TABLESPOONS! Heh heh
I don't know if Macewen Motorsports has any for 94 on his site but you don't have to remove the needles. I don't have the correct year on my car but I spoke with him on the phone and there are only slight differences with the temp I believe, that didn't bother me. They are high quality overlays!
