Will is right about not taking the bulbs and the stock gauges off. Once the new gauges are in place the only lights u'll see are the mileage and the needle lights. You might need something to hold the gauges down onces they're in so that it doesn't interfere with the movement of the needles. I used a toothpick to apply light dots of silcone to hold the gauges down. Also you might wanna cut out or file down little inserts on the bezel where the wires go out so the wires aren't pinched by the bezel when you put things back together. You can probably find power in your fuse box inside the car so that it turns on with your parking lights, but use a test light first. Good Luck dude!:thumbup:
