Aftermarket gauge install

I bought these "Euro" guages off of ebay for my '94 SE. Has anyone put these in before? Anything I should know about?

I just installed a set of these on Christmas Day - took me like 3 hrs taking my sweet time. They just slide over the stock gauges and needles. On the tach and speedo gauges, you use the two tiny screws on the stock faces to hold the new faces down, but on the fuel/temp face you need to use a little double-sided tape. Don't be afraid to bend the new faces to get over the needles - it's a tight fit, but it will work. If you need a write-up on how to take the dash apart, search for a post started by me late in November, it's got directions to get to the cluster.

Thanks guys! I was looking at a write-up on 4DSC (I think written by Black_Male) about how to get to the gauge cluster, it's short but sweet. I'll look for your post too though. Thanks again!
