btw it takes about 2 to 3 hours if it's your first time.......it's a pain in the ass to take off everything.............

1. Unscrew the dash part at your knee level (4 screws)
2. Take that part off and put it somewhere. Then unscrew the plastic around the steering column.(6 screws)
3. Then unsrew the screws inside the the gauge enclosure.....like the area right about the steering wheel with the secuity light and shit.(7 screw total I think)
4. Unplug the security light and take off the black outer piece.
5. you know will see some more screw that hold in the gauge plate.
6. unscrew those and and pull the whole thing out towards you.
7. Disocnnect the wiring on the back of it and bring it inside where you will have more room to work with it.
8. Pop off the clear plastic and do the same with the black plastic.
9. You now have direct access to the gauges.
10. Try not to touch them as they are VERY suseptable to the oil on your hands.
11. Here is the fun part. You can either take off the needle(pain in the ass and dangerous) or you can just cut them and put them together..........of course it will look better if you do it the hard way, but like I said, it's a royal pain in the ass.
12. When you order the faces from import inteligence they will give you 2 pages of instructions which are very detailed and they tell you to use warm water and shit to put it on. I just stuck it on like stickers and it seems to be fine. After you put the gauge faces on just put everything back together.....looks very nice after all the work.......I'll post some pics
