If you are not sure on how to install them i would get someone that knows how to install them to do it b/c you can seriously mess up the gauges if you accidentally put a hold in them when installing them or if you mishandle them...it shouldn't cost too much to install them...i think the place here does it for like about 20.

Yeah i would definitly get someone who knows how to do it . Like justin said if you mess up it will throw off your mph and how much gas you have and etc. Just pay a little bit to get it done the right way

Yeah i have a friend who tried to install it but he touched the needles...make sure you avoid that since it throws the accuracy off on your gauges...good luck

Exclamation yeah!!

the accuracy of the needles will be hindered if you touch them!! cause they work on a coil and if the coil is bent or moved off a lil it wont display the correct settings whatever they may be!!

Thumbs up everything looks good

well, i just got back from my cousins garage. he said that he would be able to install the gauges and from what it looks like they were installed correctly. i closed my eyes when he was threading the gauge through the needle so if he did hit it i wouldn't know. the temp and gas work fine, i tested out the tach by hitting vtec (and that was all normal) there is just no way for me to really know if the speedo is off. i didn't memorize any speeds at certain rmp. anyway, they look good and i think it was worth the 60 bucks. :flash:

Thumbs up thanks!

you know what though, i have a feeling inside me that doesn't trust the gauges now. i know it sounds gay, but everyone put these thoughts inside my head and said they would be off and now i don't trust them. oh well. oh yea, and it didn't cost me anything, yea....

Lightbulb idea?

do what i did when i got my bigger rims.. drive next to one of your buddies at about 55 or 60 and either call him on a cell or yell out the window like i did lol and ask him how fast he is goin then you can kinda get a pic of whether they are off or if there is a lil bit of a deviation.. i dont know thats what i would have done ...
