Big Ped, remember, you'll have to make a slit in the overlay to fit it over your 02 needles. It needs to be almost a hald inch long. I did it on the extra set and was able to get the overlay on over the tach needle. After you get it on you have to be sure to stick down where you made a slit with the double sided tape so it doesn't interfere with the needles.

It is almost like they are sending them out in random batch mode.

Well gents, my whining is over! My guages came today at 4:35pm. I was out front to greet the truck! Thanks Nate. I am sure that this was one huge hastle.

I have jsut finished putting the guages in and I have a couple observations.

1. It took me 4 hours to complete. If nate is th mod king I must be the mod court jester...

2. The guages really look nice and different which I like. You guys are right, the sticky tape is a pain. It might be tough getting the white guages off without destroying something.

3. The mode I personally like best is blue numbers with the iniglo glo-ing in the background. Every time I turn off the lights the guages reset to just blue numbers with no indiglo in the background. Is this just the way it is? ie every time I use the lights I will have to use the supplied switch to increase indiglo?

3. Also at times I noticed the indiglo background flickering. How do I get rid of the flicker?

Thanks again. It is neat to think that in all of san diego i am th only one with a TL like this. All for $80!

I've already installed my gauge and $hitt..that thing is awsome. But I've noticed something. We only have 3 gauges (Tech odometer,Speed odometer,temp/gas) and why the invertor has 4 plugs??
Where the last plug goes to? I've already installed my gauge not plugging anything on that last plug. Don't tell me I scewed up now.

Songoku,
Good for you! We must have been doing the installs at the same time. I figured that the guage wiring was just a generic harness that would work for a bunch of cars. Does your guage always reset to blue numbers with no indiglo?

Does anyone have an idea why on my set of guages they reset to blue numbers after I turn off the lights? I would prefer that the guages reset to where they were set before they were turned off.

I suspect the switch. Try setting the gauges to your preferred setting, unplug the switch, and then cut power and reapply. See if the gauges remember the setting.

Nope, pulling the switch set off had no impact. No mater what setting I put my guages to after I turn off my lights and turn thm back on they are at the bright blue numbers with no backlight glo.

I think I have an unrelated problem, that my SRS light is always lit. I wonder if I neglected to reconnect a connector.
