Indiglo Guages
The indiglo guages that fit the 2.2 CLs also fit the 3.0s right? 
I just ordered some off e-bay that said for the 97-00 2.2 CL, but I figured they would also work for the 3.0
I just wanna make sure before I screw something up.

This hasnt been discussed in awhile but if i remember correctly the redlines for the 2.2 and 3.0 are alittle different. So im pretty sure they will fit but your redline will be alittle off. Anyone else care to confirm?

yo if n e one has ?s about installing indiglos just give my cell a call and ill get back to u. 908-875-8155. just did mine. very easy, but there is a couple of bitchy things like
1. be careful not to tighten screws too much cuz when u put it all back to gether u will see indentation around screw in the gauge then u got to take it all aprat again to loosen it up a little
2. with the dimmer control unhooked, none of the interior dash will light up.
3. u have to leave the one bulb in behind the shifter lights cuz on an auto when u turn ur parking light on u will not see what gaer ur in if u dont leave the bulb in

Can't I just leave in all the bulbs? Why do I have to take any bulbs out?
Besides the redline issue, the guages for the 2.2/2.3 will still fit right?

why leave the bulbs in? the gauges are desinged so that the wire from them will go right though the bulb holes making foe extremley easy install. i took all my bulbs out cept for the shifter light and the mileage light and th e2 up to that shine down.

i took all the lights out except the farthest right one, i attached the two power wires to it and it works perfectly, i was thinking of leaving the other bulbs in but then wouldnt that kinda light up along with your indiglos?

What tools are needed to install the indiglo guages besides a long and a small screw driver?
Butt connectors? Wire stripper? Etc...
Tools are kinda limited @ college

N0, they are not the same gauges!! The 2.2 are different from the 2.3/3.0. I ordered the ones for the 2.2 and the screws dont match up correctly. You cant adjust the screw holes because you will short them out. If you get them and they dont fit I will trade you, I have the 5 colors. Good luck
