right, erm, tnx Sparticus, I have made contact with the person who distributes these gauages and am waiting for a response from him if it were possible to create a group buy out of them.... more info to come probably will be updated tomarow evening.

 

if i rushed, i could have it done in about 15 min, includin taking out all the panels and putting them back in. granted i have done this a lot, but even for a first timer i wouldnt expect it to take longer than 2 hours. it depends greatly on how much stuff you have already done.

 

Haha, right on tibby01....I know exactly whatcha mean. 10, 15 minutes tops for me as well, been done some many times in the past month. Crash Pad in 30 minutes too! Kit if ya need help I'll walk ya through it but I'm pretty sure someone did a DIY on removing your dash either here or at hp.com. If not I'll do one.

Any update? prices yet?

 

Here is our original discussion about these guages.

And unless the design has changed signifigantly, these will NOT be a simple straight forward Face or Overlay install. If I remember right, there will need to be numerous modifications to the cluster.

 

Considering they're being made for RD2s I would assume they will fit right in.

.....

HTF are you supposed to CUT out the stock guages w/o removing the needles???

Yes, thats for the GK's......But it will not be ANY different for 1st or 2nd gens, maybe even harder to install than for the GK's.

 

i think its talking about for the alignment of the warning/indicator lights.

taking out the needles is easy though, and really makes everything else easier. do it whenever you work on your cluster.

 

Ye of little faith. Paitence and a dremel are wonderful tools.

 

Mike and Tom from Importshark are working on seeing if any GB or information on this would be possible, ill keep you guys updated.

 

Only thing that worries me about removing the needles is possibly damaging the spindle.Also, you have to be very careful about re-attaching the needle.Otherwise your speed could be out-a-whack.
