Sorry to ask for a backtrack, but I really like the white face dials. Do tell where those came from....

BTW: The change is night & day and looks kick butt.

I was having the same problem with my gauge rings...use some epoxy and you wont have the problem again.

Yeah, i just had to open my cluster up again. My Tach wouldn't go past 3K haha. Now that I think about it, I should have secured them with something else. I guess Ill just do that if the rings start to slide again.

I dont know how accurate this statement might be, but it seems to me that many of the maxima owners dont put these gauge rings on.

Almost all of us on the other hand have put them on. Do they not realize that the rings will fit their cluster?

Hell, they definitley make the gauges look a lot more classy... I couldnt imagine not having them.
