Silver Mcnord gauge installed
Bleeding through light was/is taken care of on most... Lighter colored overlays now use a white adhesive instead of clear.
Light still gets through the numbers and stuff but don't show the actual gauge's mounting points.
Anyone who has a bleed through problem on the current order (already shipped) let me know and we can mail you a new piece of adhesive...

Don't have step by step install pics but it comes with directions with pics when he mails them.
I installed 2 today (mine and Dave's) and it is super easy. If you even have a rough idea where the needles were they basically WANT to go back where they are supposed to be, it is weird.
Anyway, checked both against a laptop and they were great
Here's some of our pics...
Dave has a Granatelli Signature Series Camaro 1 of 3 (was supposed to be 1 of 5 but only 3 ended up being made). He got permission to put the signature on the face..
Here's mine... Made to look like my Cobalts (which I didn't have them I'd have done the above color IN A HEARTBEAT, it looked SOOOO good
):

I am going to take some this weekend. I still have to fix the led's. Some are not lighting up which gives the apperance of hot spots. I think I may stick the TA bezel on as well not sure yet. Look for new pics Saturday. Sorry for the delays guys.

Pretty sure I am using the ones you would recommend. Installation error on my part. I knew I would screw something up the first time
. I will have them fixed this weekend (not all are lit up).

How much of a pain in the *** was it to get them right. I have checked each one by only having one in at time for over 3 hours today. They are all on and it still looks the same. I have even turned them and they still stay lit up 
, I thought they would not work but still do. Each plug has 4 leds, is it possible for one or two to be out and the others on the plug still work. I need some help .

I need some help .Some people sell more expensive, wide angle, etc.. LEDs to reduce this effect. PM me and I can send you a link for a fellow enthusiast who put together a good kit for our cars...
I also heard sanding the LED a little bit helps. Regardless, shoot me an e-mail with your address again so I can send you some white adhesive. It will diffuse the light some (help with spottiness) and will also get rid of the bleed through that is happening in the center of the faces...
