blue mazdaspeed gauge cluster installed PICS!!!
Here it is, kicked back some brewsky and got it done tonight, EXTRA early, so i will finish my write up tomorrow evening and it'll be up absolutely by 8 pm. until then, here's some installed shots and night time backlighting shots for those of you that have asked!!! by the way, [ictures do it no justice, underexposed in the night, it looks killer in person!
by the way, does anyone know why my oil warning lamp is always on now, i plug my stock cluster in and it reads normal oil psi, if no one has an answer i think ill find out what the nominal operating range for the oil psi is, find out the corresponding resistance and add a resistor of that value in the circuit and run an aftermarket oil psi gauge, that way i wont have to hear that damn buzzer and have that light always on, and still get my oils gauge.

Looks good...but I still don't think I'd ever get it...
2 things;
1. I like the factory red backlight more.
2. I would never like reading KM's...If they made this in MPH I would consider it. (Same reason I hate bar reading boost gauges as well as water temps in C.) I'm lazy and don't like converting in my head....I'm American danget!

It is unique. Without a doubt.
I personally wouldn't get it because I don't have a blue car.
I think this gauge cluster will go best with a Montego blue or even a Blue Mica car.
km/h doesn't bother me because I'm in Canada. Everyone should be in metric!
I don't like the font they chose nor the needles they used.
I still prefer the stock gauge cluster.
I wouldn't mind getting the 99spec gauge cluster. Have the needle start at the 6 o'clock position. Only thing wrong with that cluster is the speedo. Only goes as high as 180km/h.

Seems like a lot of money to spend on gauges so your dash can look different. I don't personally see why anyone would buy these. I think the red lights look better anyway. My .02 worth.
Looks awesome, I'm really liking the blue and the metric system
Im thinking of replacing the lights in the back of the cluster with super white LED's or maybe a color, someone said something about blue LED's i might do that maybe ill get both and see how they look, since the stock lighting is still pretty dim even with the rheostat turned all the way up.
