Replacing Gauge Faces

[schminkster02]

I just ordered new gauge faces and i'm not entirely sure how to replace remove the stock gauge faces and put these new ones in. can anyone give me a quick tutorial on how to do this?

I'll second that question.... I know that the gauges on ZXTuner say that you don't have to remove the needles, which is obviously a plus, but if it involves removing large portions of the dashboard, I'd rather not bother with it.... Everything I've done in my car that involves removing panel trim retainers usually breaks them, and the replacements are always the wrong color.

you have to take off the guage suround then un screw the guage pod, its a 5min job, buth the guages i have never replaced, only pulled them out a few times

Got another question on that note: I replaced the faces, and I think I popped a spring or something in the speedo needle... It's the only one that doesn't work. I assume this is not a problem I can fix myself... Any one know how much it might cost me?

And while I'm at it, where's some easy wires to splice into for the new gauges (around the pedals.
