The hardest part of the entire install is removing the nuts that hold up the steering column- and that wasn't even very difficult with the right tools.

Does anyone have pictures of just the rings and no bezel? I wouldn't want the bezel, a little too much shiny..

Chrome Gauge Rings on Ebay
I bid on my chrome gauge rings on Ebay and was able to get them for $45.00 (plus $6.00 shipping). The real thing, solid chrome with the adhesive backing. I refused to pay $60-$65.00 for a set of rings, which doesn't include the shipping price. $51.00 is much more reasonable. Shop around, you'll find them like I did.

one of the big ones was a bee-otch to get to stay in...
I ended up shaving some of the black bezel and re-gluing one ring.
looks f'ing sweet though...everyone loves 'em and compliments them.
I also changed my instrument cluster plastic...it was abour $45 (CDN)
at the dealer and looks way better than my old one. the old one had
swirl marks on it from years of cleaning and what not.
if it all fits easy, then this is easily under an hour to install.
hope it helps.
