The dealer will do anything if you're willing to pay. Just be ready to fork out some big time $$$$. My dealer charges like $60 an hour for labor. And since dealers are not used to changing stock gauges to aftermarket ones, chances are they'll take their time with it, running you a higher a bill. I would just recomend following the online instructions for removing your dash and gauges, and do it yourself. ALOT of people on the boards have done it themselves, so I'm sure they will be more than happy to help ya out if you come into issues doing it yourself! wink.gif Good luck!

Yes,... you have to take that "frame" off before you can get the gauges out.
Me, Random and Cotton have painted that, frame.
I'll try to dig up some pix

That's what you mean when you say frame right?

hey nice try with the sarcasm....but i wasnt talking about how you guys got yer dash painted...i plan to do that also later on...no, i'm talking about the little piece that goes around the perimeter of the guage face...but sine you guys took yours out you prolly forgot what i'm talkin about...BUT...the guy who most recently posted about finishing his guages put up his pics AND it includes the "frame" that you guys left off...only problem is that with the "frame" put on the TSR guages (it looks like) the 6500 rpm redline isnt shown...that it looks like a 7000 rpm redline... so i've found the answer to my question...but thanks anyway
oh and about the sarcasm...i'm 25 not 15...i know what a dash is...thx
