yes :D
how did you fix it?
did not :D
Some ideas. I think you can cover it up with a silver pen or white pen markers depending on the color. Or if you don't really care, then just use some black marker. Don't held me any responsibility for your doings
why cover it up? it looks the jdm type r aerocord gauges.......right?:D
uh, happy new year 04, well i guess no one has said anything in this thread for a long while but i was wondering, out of a scale od 1 to 10, how much of a pain in the a$$ IS it to change the indaglo gagues? i was just curious cause i was thinking of getting them off ebay but i didnt know how much trouble i would be getting myself into.thanks alot
hey, i've been wondering why they don't list the indiglo guages as 86-89. usually, and realy i havent found it saying 86-89, but only 88-89. i looked at different guages from all model years, and nothing was realy different except for the carb and FI models, but thats just the bezel thing. not the actual guages. anyway, i would realy like some of the indiglo guages to liven up my dash!
i painted my bezel red and just painted the bulbs blue and gives it a sweet teal color to it. for wiring the indiglos splice them thru one of the wires that light up another gauge... Well thats what i did for my tach...
i got my silver faced reverse indiglos off ebay(best place to get the procarparts ones) for like $23. I wired them into my cruise control switch on the dash because it was close by and it lights up with the rest of the dash lights, and mounted the switch in the little hole to the right of that. I left the lights that light up the faces of the stock gauges so i could see the needles at night. To solve your problem of seeing the beginning of the glow, put the wires behind the gauge bezel, i did and do not have a problem with that. When i mounted them i had a little problem with the speedometer screw holes not lining up correctly so i kinda had to extend the right one, and for the temp/fuel gauge i used double sided 3M tape. I have no problems with guages not working. I think they dont list them as 86-89 because some models had temp/fuel gauges that had needles which pointed inwards while some had needles that pointed outwards.
any one have a diagram or step by step list of how to install them. i dont have them yet but i was thinking about getting them and i tried to get to the gagues and i dont know how to get to them. Just though someone would know.
to get to the gauges theres a bunch of screws you will need to remove. Two are on the top part of the gauge cover near the window ( under a cover you will need to remove first) and then there are some screws to the left of the steering column behind where the power mirror switch is or would be. and finally there are some to the right of the steering column behind the rear defroster and headlight popup switches. then the entire cover should just pull off and viola!... you are into your gauges.
thanks man, you helped alot
