Default installed white face guages last night

i ordered a set of white face guages and finally got around to putting htem in. it was a very easy install and for being only $35 shipped, they fit great. the hardest part was actually getting the bezel on and off the car, it was a PITA getting it to fit around the steering colomn.heres some pics
removing trim around bezel was just having to pull it off, it was held in by several clamps and the wire harness connecting the fog light switch, then to get the cluster out it was just 4, 10mm screws.
i had the cluster out whiped it down and started installing guages, they were stick on so i had the lights turned on so the numbers would light up(do in a dark garage) and just had to slip them over the needles DONT REMOVE NEEDLES!!!!

once i had them lined up nice i firmly pressed them all down to make sure they fit right and wont peel off, make sure you go around the area that is by the needles and make sure its not rubbing the needles at all

installed

with lights on

finished

I almost bought those but the pic on their site didnt show it had the right symbols, I called & they didnt have a clear answer about their product so I ordered MacEwen. I love the white face look.

yeah i was a little up in the air about them being so cheap, but they were actually nice thick material and went on and fit very well. look great and at night time they look even better.
