I just installed the white face gauges (speedo, tach, fuel, temp and HVAC) from Import Intelligence (www.importintelligence.com). Cheaper than indiglo and no wiring to do. Looks suh-weet in the car day and night. At the same time, I also installed the APC chrome ringed brushed aluminum dash insert.
The tricky part was on the fuel guage. There is a clear plastic piece under the stock gauges that covers one of the screws that hold the fuel gauge in place. I lifted it a little and used needle nose pliers to twist it out. From what I could tell, the plastic piece would have been a bigger pain to take out.
Whole thing is a little longer than 15 minutes. I have never taken out my gauge cluster before, so I took my time and was extra careful. I imagine the next time I take it out, it will go a lot quicker.
Also, if you get the import intelligence gauges, you do not need to use the positioning fluid that they talk about. Once I had the gauge out of the cluster I taped it up to a window and then overlayed the gauge face over the stock gauge. Then taped that in place on top and on to the window. Made sure it was aligned and then peeled off the backing and pressed the face on to the gauge. That part only took a couple of minutes per gauge. Be careful with air-bubbles though.
All in all, it is not that difficult and I can and would easily do it again. Hope this helps. Candude
