In response to In response to 4


          

Alright, I got mine yesterday, and got them installed today. First of all, the AC brand is really good. They arn't off-white like some, they are white white. Very good quality.

Here's how it works.

1. Remove the 2 screw which hold the black bracket on.
2. Unscrew the screws and pull the whole thing out
3. Take it inside.
4. Take off the plastic cover via clips
5. Take odd the black cover via clips
6. Slid the new white gauges over the needles and let them be on top of your old gauges.
7. Tape down the gauges on the edges so they are as flat as possible - this allows the needles to work properly.
8. Re-assemble the whole thing.
9. Get another person to help.
10. Have one person slide the gauge set in as the other makes sure to have the 4 wires come down through the holes in the dash.
11. Plug he 4 wires into the recieving end for power
12. Mount the box under the steering column, behind the plastic thing. (I used snap ties to mount it)
13. The black and the red wires need to be used for power. I ran mine with my cigarette lighter ring light, cause it turns on when the parking lights turn on.
14. Remove the plastic sideboard by undoing it's screws. (If your sitting in the driver seat, it the big plastic thing on the right of your right foot.) There is a rubber screw and a metal screw.
15. Use electrical connecters to grond the black wire to the black wire. And also use a connector to splice the red wire with the cigarette lighter wire.
16. Put the cover back on.
17. Mount the switch in your desired position.

That's how I did it. That was probably confusing, but I'm sure it will help someone.
