99 spec gauge cluster
Anybody ever put those in? Are they plug and play?
Just curious. They look a lot better than the regular 93 style ones if you ask me.

The $1000 gauge cluster was BRAND NEW Mazdaspeed clusters. The white faced is plug 'n play, the blue one is like this 99spec one in that it needs a few things to make it work. And the Mazdaspeed tach starts from the 7 o'lock position as our US tachs do (vs. the 6 'oclock position of this 99spec one), but the Mazdaspeed tachs end at 10,000 rpm
Either way, if you're interested in either, PM me.

Only thing I'd strongly remind and advise everyone of is: make sure you have a SHOP document the odometer miles on your original cluster before swapping any clusters, so you don't end up w/ a vehicle w/ "unknown/unverifiable mileage" in the future. Kinda hard to sell those

Look at that thread or search Defi Super Sports Cluster. Trust me there are many inline for it.
Take a seat and wait like the rest of us.

1250$ and even 3000$ awesome. Think ALL the guages you can buy centered in it. See the value @ 1,250$ ITS ROBBERY. Think of a boost guage, temp guage, exh temp guage, wat temp guage, speedo, oil pressure common now.

Plus I don't particularly like the way it sits in front of the cluster. If someone got it customized in with a speedo to match then it might look good. I know it has a digi speedo, but I like the traditional speedo also.

Ramy. True! I was just noting that it didn't have EVERY reading. I know I am knitpicking. Yeah the display does look like ***. Maybe if it was customized into the speedo itself. It does have a degree of rice to it. Looks like something that Honda guys put in. BTW, Ramy my name is Jason. Nice to meet you after all this time!

"Or you can swap speedos, keeping your original speedo & odometer."
you would have to do something about the lighting though - as the later cluster has green lighting - not orange

Good point. I was thinking something along the lines of what Dale Clark & Hyperite did... sand off the red paint, and you'd have it w/ a white backlight. At that point, you can leave it as is, paint it red, or maybe even use red bulbs (since the lens would now be clear)?
Oh and DaiOni, thanks for always helping point out the stuff I overlook We'd be lost w/o ya

Was thinking of going the sanding root however, I don't feel it looks rice. It looks nice and EXT replaces A/F Ratio. Maybe i will show you guys this super secret part I have my eye on if this doesnt go through hint: its not super secret, you have probably seen it, it comes from R-Magic

good point guys. I liked what Dale did with the scratching off the red, I however give him a lot of credit for doing it and getting it right. It looks really difficult after looking at how the red illum is on there. How do people get the blue illuminated gauges in there? I never figured that out. I know it is some time of overlay but, how to they switch the illumination from red?

yeah I thought bulbs but they still have to shine through the red. So you think people have done the scratch technique and then put colored bulbs in. That would work now wouldn't it. Then you could change the illumination to any color of bulb you could get in there. huh?
