Default 6 Gen Gauges

I'm looking to change the stock look of the 99 Accord V6 Gauges. I dont like the way they look cuz it looks like the same from my moms odessey(?). What do you guys reccomend? I'm looking for something a bit more sporty looking.

i found these so far

Ive had the same kind for around 4 years now and they are fine.

Its all about the looks that u like when it is on the inside.

I say if u like it then go for it.

Those are nice stock looking not to bright. I might get them my self, if you are going to get them take picture and can you make a DIY. How to open the case (cluster) and insert the faceplates with out removing the Needles.

The faces should slide on over the needles once you have everything taken apart.

I had indiglos way back when but got sick of them very quickly :dunno: I think the 01-02 Coupe V6 gauges with the metallic faces and red needles look the best.

instead of using razor blade, cotton balls and rubbing alchohol. i used cotton swabs and acetone or some paint remover to completely remove the orange part of the needle

Cool. Where did you get the binnacle from? The ones I see on ebay are always yellow APC shit.

Why doesnt your temp gauge light up?
