Hey i have a 2001 I30t, and i like the Se guages. Is it possible 2 switch them over?

 

whhhyyyyy????
yours is much nicer...except they're black....

 

mine are kinda boring. i jus went outside and took a pic so u can see. its always lit up and sometimes hard 2 see in the sun. but i like the different color effect in the SE gauges. I used 2 own a 98 Se and i loved those gauges. any word on indeglow for the 5th gen max??
thanks

 

i like that but i think i know wut u mean, about not seeing them during the day tym.. that can b a pain in the a$$.. but i'm not sure if it will work.. i mean they look just alike, so u can give it try.. but i wanna know if we can put them needels on our 5th gens?? do u think that will work???

 

When I installed my gauge rings, I removed the entire gauge cluster. The gauge faces are a paper material. So, granted the Maxima and Infiniti gauges are the same size, you could theoretically take the gauge material stuff, the face, and apply it to your Infiniti. I am not sure how the lighting will work on the Infiniti. But, as long as the size is the same, and you can purchase just the face, it should work. I do not know how the gauge face is attached to the unit. I just know I felt the material and it felt "papery" and was somewhat loose, meaning it was an "insert".

 

Thanks, maybe i will be the first to do this kind of change. I'll mess around and explore mine first jus to make sure i can do it and so on. anyone know how much it might run me?? thanks.

 

I thought Infinitis had electroflourecent (sp?) gauges. I don't really understand the way they work but I don't get how you could just switch the face plate...

 

I30 have those special dash...(where you can't see the gauge unless you start the car) so I don't think it will work... dunno...

 

Exactly. I don't think it's anything like swapping plastic faceplates..

 

Here is the GOOD news and the BAD NEWS.

GOOD NEWS..............
The gauges are exactly the same and would fit perfectly.

BAD NEWS..............
In order to get that Gauge sheet off, you need to pull off the NEEDLE on all four gauges, and from past experience, YOU DONT want to do that, cause (A), it is a pain in the A$$ to get off, (B), they will never go back on in the EXACT location you took them off, and because of that, you joint and reading will ALWAYS be off.

 

if you ask me, I think the I30 gauges are nice

 

yup..theirs is laser...
unless you do a core swap...changing out the face only won't work..
