Ya know that was actually A LOT easier that I thought it was gonna be.

Basically I just nudged my thumb from the back (there are holes throughout the stock panel that let light out) and pushed the stickers out a little then just worked carefully a flat head screw driver and lossened it all around. They came right off. And there was enough adhesive left on it to stick on the new panel.

They were much thicker than I thought so you would have to be real careless to rip one. Someone told me they ordered new onse instead of prying off the orginals like I did, so you have a back up just in case.

Hope that helps.

Oh, almost forgot. There are little tabs at the top of each sticker that fit into a little hole on the stock panel (makes for quick an easy alignment at the factory). So you have to snip those off with a scissors or something.

I've got something that'll be something like this, but maybe not as bootyful. $60 takes the kit. It comes with the radio relocating thingy from Mitsubishi, and a 3 gauge cluster thing that'll put 3 52mm gauges in the stock radio location.

What is the part number from Mitsu for just replacement stickers? Also, how did you get the climate control stickers to come off?

When I was removing my stock panel off, one sticker came off almost by itself. It's easy... they have like a small clip that attaches them to the panel and are also glued to it but the adhesive isn't very sticky so you can take it off easily.

Defi gauges have configurable bright red warning indicators that turn on whenever a sensor reads too high (boost, EGT, oil t., water t.) or too low (oil p., fuel p.). You can also set up warning buzzers. It's easy to see the indicators out of the corner of your eye so it's no big deal. Craig's panel is also slightly tilted toward the driver which helps this.

Pics soon ...

Seems like the climate control stickers are not illuminating at night. Does craigs panel have holes in the back to allow this? If not Im gunna have to carfully drill to allow the light to pass through
