instument cluster removal

[95_G20_P10]

i saw that last thread with the diff color gauges and i was just wondering if its hard to take apart the clutsre to get at the bulbs. can a avgerage person like me change the bulbs myself? and is there any instrcutions on doing this?

not too hard to remove the cluster, since you have a p10, even easier to change the bulbs. there should be 4 screws holding the black trim piece with the security light, (two on the bottom, two on the top). you will also more than likeley have to take off the plastic piece covering the steering wheel column, I think that is held on by 4 screws also (on the underside of it) then, there should be 4 more screws holding the gauge cluster in, after you take off those screws, CAREFULLY pull the cluster slightyly (about an inch) out and then tilt the top of the cluster out (toward you) you should then ahve access to the bulbs that light your cluster. they will be the ones with the bigger recepters (I think they are brown) and are a 194 bulb, then just reverse to put everything back.

Do the needles have seperate lights or do they all blend together? ie. can I make the writing in red and the needles in blue. If not, has anyone used those indiglo needle kits from import intelegence (sp?)

Yes the backlight for the needles is the same color as the bulbs for the backlighting in the cluster gauges.

I have installed the blue indiglo needles from importinelligence and i think they look really good. The backlighting i have kept on is still white, but i'm thinking about putting red bulbs behind it. I'll let you know how it looks.
