still working on customizing the factory gauges but heres a pic of them currently..
not done yet..

 

Looks pretty kool to me!!! How did you do it so far?

 

looks good
I hope the car is runnig and the needles are not just sitting at those positions after you put the gauges back together
why are the needles so bright?

 

no the car is not running. the needles still need to be calibrated. I purchased a needle kit that puts an L.E.D underneath each needle. The factory gauge faces have a orange transparent film on the back that cannot be peeled of but only sanded off. it was a long process but the color was driving me nuts.

 

LOL! calibration? good luck with that



BTW, I know about the gauge faces - I wrote the thread on it

 

Check this thread for a simiar mod like yours. I think it looks great. Although, someone discovered acetone on a rag works really well in removing the film.

i set the needles to the max and then took pictures. When i go to put the needles back im going to put them to the exact same point were they maxed out at. VS running the car and taking note of fuel level, rmp, etc.. i also have a computer to plug into the car to match up the rpms just incase.

 

well at least you have a plan
only about 50% of the gauges take apart ever work again
