Well, if some of you saw my thread about modifying the guages...thats what I did. It took about 30-40 minutes overall...drilling and sizing all the holes right. But I LOVE the new look.


Thanks Jake!

 

indiglo?

 

......

 

Im confused with your car.... What is it? Looks like a SE from the outside, but you have a GLE or GXE driver side air bag cover.

 

It's a limited production GSE....see my side profile..

 

 

Indiglo

 

1fstmax - i know it was in a front end coillion before I got it. Obviously the airbags went off....and I'm guessing it got replaced w/ a GLE wheel or cover. But it is an SE

 

i had those but they were way to bright for me at night and lit up my face. stock SE gauges with leds own all other gauges.

 

I emailed the seller like 10 times asking him to give me a refund bc he said it would fit my car b4 i bought it but he wont accept it (speedinfiniti or something). You drilled into the gauges and theres no problem at all?

 

Luda - yea, no prob at all. Then get some nail clippers and cut off the excess plastic.

 

Cool... here I come

 

Haha, just TAKE your time. MAKE sure the guages fit over the needles and DO NOT take the needles off.

Do NOT over tighten the screws (in the middle of tach and speedo) and make sure the needles DO NOT stick!

 

arent those the ones that can also go to reverse style? did you get 'em from paradox-systems?

 

bijan got rice too

 

Just wondering what's wrong with overtightening the screws? I'm so glad...I've had these damn gauges sitting around since December and no one wanted to buy them off me.

 

Ohannon, slizan99 got them off eBay, some brand called RS or Racing Styles....some weird shat.

They're not reverse indiglow....just blue and green w/ adjustable dimmer.

 

If you over tighten them, it'll cause SOME damage SOMEwhere.....just tighten "hand tight" w/ a screwdriver

 

BLUE



GREEN




And this is my mistake I made, I havent driven my car in 3 hours and my temp guage is still ½ way -- Now I gotta go back in and make it more flush

 

Does the odometer not light up now?

 

yea it does. I didnt have the "dimmer" adjusted before putting them back in, so when the guages are bright....the console is dim and vice versa

 

my temp gauge does the SAME EXACT THING

 

Basically you'll need to take it out and make sure it's flush. I hope my gas guage isnt stuck...
