he also mentions on the auction that they got white overlays too, couldn't decide if i wanted white or not, so i just got the grey ones. anyone got the white overlays?

Looks good that I just bought one, too. Thanks for the lead!

no worries, i'm waiting for a reply back regarding the white gauges, if he sends me pics i'll post it up here...

ok here is the pic of the white overlay, i couldn't decide on which one to get, so i just got the grey still. Whatchu guys think of the white overlay?

also docmike, justin said that i dont need to remove the needles to install the overlay, how does the overlay fit over the needle? was it hard to install?

is this still available? i want the grey one too... oh yeah...

yes they are

yes they are available, and he will make more of them. And anyone who destroys their cluster (easiy to do if you are not careful), I have one in perfect condition no dead pixels if you need it.:popcorn:

hey docmike, how was the install? did you have to remove the needles? if not how did you install the overlays?

I think 10mph is his avg according to the OBC. He just happens to have it set to display that value.

install was a major PITA. And it takes lots of water to get them to go on correctly. Overall very doable and looks reat when done. You can remove needles to make it easier, i forgot where i saw this, but you use a fork to pry off
