The gauge bezel looks alright, but I think it can look better.

Is it hard to switch out an ES cluster for an OZ one? Cause seriously the the OZ one looks friggin sweet stock as it is. A hell of a lot better than the ES one. Thinking of changing mine, but just wanted to know if its an easy swap. And I heard you don't keep your original mileage right? That blows, but its more for looks anyway.

It's an easy swap, and as it's been said multiple times you lose your milage because Mitsubishi made it so that the odometer is stored in the cluster. Good luck trying to fix it. I tried asking the only Mitsubishi dealership here and they said it was illegal. I don't put too much stock in what they say though considering they claimed the ES to OZ swap was impossible.

I think it's a RA cluster that's why. I just looked at a pic of one. The halo gauge overlay I bought has the redline at 6.

Man, that gauge bezel looks like someone opened up a tuna can lid and cut it into the shape of the ES gauge cluster.

fack.....this sucks....well... apparently the oz gauge cluster I bought, the top 2 mounts are broken. Guy says he'll just refund me my money, or he will give it to me $60, and I could just swap the insides of each cluster....dunno really what he's talking about, but I guess he is saying just use the housing of my ES cluster, and put in the insides of the oz cluster?

Is this even possible? Or should I just get my money back....sorry....I know this is off topic.... but just need some advice. thanks guys

i say get ur $$ back, u can always get another one later on......maybe for even cheaper than $60 but in better condition~ and the swap is really easy, although i have never swapped clusters, i opened mine up and changed the bulbs to red. All u gotta do it unscrew, unscrew and unscrew
