I just purchased a new Guage instrument panel back ground. Its a white face. Does anyone have step by step instructions on how to get to the instrument panel to remove and replace the old black nasty guages?

just be careful not to break your needles, you have to bend the faces to get em to fit

word
Why would I have to bend them? I got the post and directions.. KUDOS to that guy who did the step by step. You rock...

Im looking to put white faces on the speedometer, Give it more luxury clean look. I have the wood trim to match.. But wont I just take off the old faces or do I just put these over top?


I have them on order at this time.. So any insight I can get prior to installation is kick ass and always appreciated..

most of the time, you take off the old ones and replace them with the new ones. if they are gauge covers, i wouldnt even bother.

i think he has the covers not the whole cluster in which he would have to go over the existing gauges,which is a bitch, i did reverse glow gauges in my saturn and messed up my spring in my spedo needle but anyway good luck,let us know how you made out

They go on OVER your current faces, so like I said, you have to bend them and manipulate them around your needles, be careful not to break the needles

They do not pop off, if you take them off you will screw up the needles. You get power from the dimmer, there are a lot of directions in this thread
