i saw some on ebay for 35 bucks, they looked really nice, besides my one bulb is burned out by the speedo, fuel and its quite annoying. Does anyone have them and are they an easy install? is the guy who sells them reputable?

I do on my '97. Look nice in the day, can't stand them at night. Almost impossible to get all the lights and letters perfectly lined up.

I have them installed on my car. I installed them while i was in my car it was easier this way I thought at least. He was a nice guy to me, and they were in my hands like after 3 days.

If you're talking about the white faced that glow indiglo then I have those in my 91.The install was'nt too bad even though I had to pull it all out to reset them straight.Just make sure you use some tape or something to hold them in while you put it back together.The least little bump will knock em out of place.Ohh yeah another thing.My headlights are not all that bright cuase of the film on them so the dash lights kinda over power your sight(or mine anyways). wink

I have the reverse glow "halo" gauges from streetracerparts.com I think it was like $48.99 after shipping. Anyhow, I installed 'em in my 91+ and they look cool. Only problem is, I think that they were set up for a different year SHO because the fuel/water temp gauge's connector was sitting over the trip odometer reset button. Easy fix though, I just pushed the button in, slipped it behind the connector and BADA BING, no more issues. I'd reccommend leaving the dash bezel off and leaving the dimmer **** where you can get to it 'til you can set the right brightness at night, then tie it all up nicely and tuck it away. Quick pointer, at the top of the light switch there's a brown wire... that's where you tap power from. I couldn't find a good ground behind there anywhere so I tapped the ground for the "lights on" indicator to the right of the light switch. Also, when the gauges are in the blue mode, the inverter screams, but you'll proably never hear it when the car's running.

Any questions? you can e-mail me if you need to
