the AEM fits super easy once you take the gauge apart and extend some wires. you end up mounting only the insides of the gauge. the rest gets trashed.

i haven't done it; a friend of mine has. you have to completely take the AEM gauge apart. you will only be using the internals. you will only cut away enough of the white housing to get everything to fit. i think he said he also had to use silicone to get it all to stay together and in place. the wires from the gauge exit the rear of the cluster. that's all i know about that.. i thought i remember him saying he had to do some rewiring. maybe he meant they were damaged during disassembly. once you start, it's pretty straight forward. just don't cut into anything electrical and you are good. neither of us cut the board or anything else important. be gentle with a dremmel and only trim as much as you need to.

i grew a pair and did this the other day take 3-4 hour tops. cut the board were the top three lights go. but make sure you dont cut into the circuit lines above them, because those go to something else. i just used a dremel and made the three spots were the lights go bigger. just remember going down is ok, up is bad when cutting it.
