Thanks for the kind words. As for the install its not to bad Just pop the piece off around the gauges then its just 4- 7mm bolts and then you can pull the gauges out. Then just follow the directions. For the back lighting you have to get leds if you want color otherwise it will be white.

The gauge came from a 6le like vincity said. I am very happy with them. I love the color and how the firehawk lights up at night too.

I readjusted the needle when the gauges were back in the car. You can take the lens off and readjust them so they are perfect. I even had the car running with i did some of them.
