white gauge face, gauge bezel, etc - HELP!

i'd like to put some SE style white gauge faces on my 2000 GXE. i've read that they make simple sticker type gauge face covers. anyone have any experience with those? how hard are they to install (no removing the needles or anything, right?)? where can i get them?! i've seen some on ebay...but with limited info and install instructions. anyone have any...what brand name and from where?

and, what about the silver gauge bezels? how hard are they to install? i've seen several of the silver and carbon fiber ones on ebay also. does the black bezel on there now come off or does the silver/carbon fiber one go on top of it?

last question! the clear plastic cover/lens on the outside of the gauge cluster on my ride is really clouded up with some substance. i have tried cleaning it with everything! the smudges and streaks just come right back! can i get a new one of these? anyone know a part # or advice on where to get one? install difficultly?

anyone know where i can find some how-to instructions on any of these 3 items?

thanks in advance!

go to www.importintelligence.com

they sell guages for the max. and you can chose the color and style you like. its basically build your own guage and they make it for you.

yea, i saw IMPORTINTELLIGENCE on ebay. but their site and ebay auctions don't have any details on installation procedures and what exactly attaches them to your old gauges faces (sticker or what?).

anyone have a set of these that could provide some advice?

I have the import intelligence faces, the install is a *****, they can get messed up real quick. You do have to take the needles off to get them on, and, if you do, you want to be really careful because I really jacked up mine when I did it, luckily I didn't find it too hard to manually recalibrate them.
