Finding a set you like can be hard however the install on them is easy if you have taken you dash apart before....I think it took me all of 1 hour to install mine, hardest part is removing and reinstalling your needles so that they read what they should read. I would suggest marking where you needles sit before you remove them and also marking what the speed and rpms read at certain speeds such as 40 and 60 so that after you reinstall them you cna make sure they are on correctly. Alos leave you r dash apart for a few days to make sure your needles dont start sticking or having any other problems. As for a power source there are lots to pic from. Also make sure the gauges you get are for your year tiburon or they will not fit properly.

there are some cheap ones on ebay that i wouldn't recommend because not all of them line up the way they should. check out what www.kspec.com has to offer (Bros). many ppl here have them and i will be buying them in due time. here they are in red

EDIT: just saw you said "mph"...well, Km/h is bigger w/ mph smaller...i like it this way cuz when ppl look in to check out the car, they think it can go 240 mph tongue.gif just something u'd have to adjust to. i don't think it would be too hard. be different, go w/ km/h :roll:

is it legal in the united states to have kmh as your speed?.... oh and greatlakestib... how do you mark the needles.... i've never actually taken a dash apart before... would it be easier to have someone else do it that has before?

i honestly don't think it would matter....especially since MPH is also on there, just not in the bigger font.

it has MPH in smaller numbers on the inside ring... just like your factory gauges probably have KMH in smaller #s
