Why don't you just install them yourself. It's not that hard really. I did mine in like, 15 minutes

Swonder67, what is the process involve? I heard you don't have to remove the needles, and it's mostly just pulling the console back and sticking them on like stickers. Is it really that easy? Do you know a place online where I can find detailed instructions?
Thanx:sun:

One more thing...
I forgot, are your gauges indiglo, or just lit with the normal light. How difficult is the indiglo setup to inslatt, and where does the switch go?
Thanx

No, you don't have to remove the needles. After you get the cluster out, you just slip the faces around the needle. like, you slide the hole in the middle of the face through the needle. You just have to be careful not to mess with the needle too much, because that can mess up the calibration. Installing my gauges was the second time I've done it, (The first time was on my friend's 96 Accord). Here's a link to some step by step instructions. Not INCREDIBLY helpful, but the pictures kinda help. Also, here is a pic of my gauges.

My gauges are just white faced. But indiglos aren't much harder to install. Just a tiny bit of wiring. you can put the switch/petentiometer if you have any dead switches like if you don't have a moon roof or power mirrors

Cool, now that you've done that yourself, you're gonna want to do everything yourself!

Pulleys are gonna be kinda hard to install. especially the crank case one. I think you have to go through the wheel well for that one.
