EL Glow white face guages installed...

jrfan4life · October 2nd, 2007, 07:59 PM

Ok... So I finaly got the time to get it installed.. They look real nice installed and lit up but It takes some finess to get the job done.
Taking out the cluster is a breeze.... Then took it to the dinning room table and did the rest... I will say the hardest part is sliding the new face under the needles took a bit. I was scared I was going to break one of the needles but after 15 minn I got it done.... Then hooking it up in the car was ok. I ran the ground direct to the brace behind the cluster then ran the power wire to the headlight switch. I spliced it into the red and yellow wire... If the dam steering wheel wasent in the way it would of been easer... But all set now Whole thing took about 1 hour. I will take some pics and post asap....

I wanna get White Face Guages, but i'm not good with the electric shit, unless it has to do with car audio & video, and a few other simple things.

Exactly. I had a friend who had a '93 gt and we spent like three hours trying to get that thing to work right. It was a nightmare.

sorrowfulkiller · October 2nd, 2007, 10:32 PM

most in car bulbs are 194's you can buy leds for them online if you want to change the bg color without changing the face

energiesource · October 2nd, 2007, 10:33 PM
