I've been thinking of teaming them up with omori "vw look gauges" They are blue with red needles.



These are available from http://www.j-spectuning.com

 

Im diggin on that blue color!

 

They would look nice with my white Defi BF gauge that is on its way.

 

Now I see why they come black stock... yuck. Why would you put your EGT right infront of the tach?

 

EGT works well there, you can see both gauges perfectly from the driver's perspective. That pic is a close up.

 

The guages look nice...where canI get some...

 

Found a link on ebay from the guy I bought them from...

he I was atching the exact same item .....Honestly how hard was it to intall....?

 

Tools needed:
Phillips screwdriver
wire strippers
10mm socket and ratchet
soldering iron, solder and shrinkwrap (or scotchlocks if you must)


remove 2 screws that hold in the dash bezel and remove it

remove 3 screws that hold in the insrument cluster

pull instrument cluster out of dash.

unplug 2 plugs in the back of the instrument cluster

pop the clear cover off the instrument cluster; it has little tabs that you just have to push in on and then it comes right off.

pop the grey surround that trims the gauges off help on by similar little clips like the clear cover was.

lay the new gauges ontop of the old ones, they just slide down over top of the needle, no need to remove the needles.

run the wires out existing chennels of the instrument cluster.

replace the silver gauge surround

replace the clear lense

solder and shrink wrap one wire on the back of the gauges to tap for power.

screw the ground wire onto a solid ground behind the dash (there is a 10mm bolt right there).

route the wires for the dimmer switch someplace easy to access (the pocket down by your left knee is ok)

screw the instrument cluster back in

screw the instrument cluster bezel back in

enjoy your new gauges.

He also includes an instruction sheet with directions and pictures with the kit.

 

YUCK! how could u like those? those belong on honda civics with the big autometer shift tachs

 

are those the same ones Corey has?

 

i like the way it lookes at night but not during the day. if the gauges were stock color but lit up like these then i would but them. dont like the white thats all.

 

whoa that's a lot of bright colors! haha nah, looks pretty cool.

 

Haters wil hate, whatever. I've got a heavy stereo system in my evo as well. It's a performance car, why would you want to do that everyone says! Oh well, To each his own. If you don't like it stfu. I just posted it so others knew that there was an option out there.

 

yes
