Bad Instrument cluster


So ive been having some trouble with my gauges not working, and not lighting up lately, and from being on here often ive seen that a few other people have been having the same problems. I decided that since i was having all this trouble i was not only going to fix it but change the look of my cluster this is what i decided to get. any one every installed this brand cause the instructions they send with it are kinda vague. This is the advertised one but i will post pic's of the real on in my room later today or tommorrow.( Gotta pick up a lot of wood after the storms the other weekend)

if the gages aren't working, a gage overlay won't fix it. you might need a whole new instrument cluster like this:Simco Classic Series Mustang Gauge Cluster (99-04 V6) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!
i got one a few weeks ago and it looks great. install is easy and i believe AM has them on sale till the end of the month. check their June specials on the website...

I already had bought a replacement instrument cluster but i wanted the white face and when i saw that overlay i liked the look of it. I just need to figure out how to wire it up cause there instructions just plain suck!!!
