Take about one hour to do it. since I did it a lot of time. I need 25 min to do one. thanks

Super!! Thanks

I know thist thread is about the black face gauges but I know that Trustz has a few white face gauges left.

So I wanted to post some pics of them to remind you guys what they look like.





Ok you guys that want the white ones buy the last of them that Trustz has.

I have one of the white face gauges that I would be willing to sell, since they do not fit on my 05 because of the ACD.

I just ordered the black-faced set today. Hopefully they match my Nexus gauges better than the stock one!

I installed them today, took about an hour I guess, super easy install. Here are a few quick crapy pics I snapped after the install:

Also for anyone adding these, I ended up switching to the green setting as it matches everything better, i.e. the clock, the MR guages etc. I really did look blue against everything else whereas the "green" looks more like the white used everywhere else inside. Also if you have a IX there isn't any readily available place to install the dimmer control switch thing so I just ghetto'd it a little and have it behind the cluster where I can reach up under the dash and adjust it if necessary. This way it's out of site but not out of reach. As you notice in the pics the new gauge faces match the stock surround and the stock gauges perfectly. They look like OEM only a different color. Great quality and my hat goes off to trustz!

There's only two types Evoryder, white faced gauge cluster (no acd indicator) and black faced gauge cluster (w/acd)...
The black faced cluster will work on non-acd Evo's you'll just have to deal with the acd indicator being there and not being used...
Trustz, will you be making black faced clusters with no acd indications, apparently there's quite a few owners who are interested (myself included)... Not too interested in the white one but if there was a black faced non-acd gauge available, I'd buy in a heartbeat... All-in-all, good job.. Best aftermarket cluster I've seen...

I'd also be interested in the black-faced model with no ACD indicator. The poor visibility of the stock gauge cluster has been a minor inconvenience for me from the beginning and this looks like a big improvement while maintaining a clean, OEM look.

Good looks + improved functionality = win for me.

The one with the ACD indicator works just fine on an 8. Obviously the ACD lights don't come on, but everything else is perfect.
