many people mess up their guages trying to install crap like that. if you don't what your doing, don't install them yourself. if you like them buy them, i'd rather waste money elsewhere though.

They are not too hard to install. at least not on my 1990 accord. Just Dont touch the needles!! You can really fu#* them up.

also you go to keep track of all the screws you take out of the dash.
You can find instructions online that will tell you where all the screw locations are.

I'd rather spend my money elsewhere, but it looks nice. I don't know what is with everybody's obsession with gauges. :fawk:

I think white face gauges look better then black face gauges. Plus at night its kinda a biitch to see stock Gauges (well the needle).

$25 on ebay well for the gauges at least, and these are my favorite, dull white face(no glare) they use the OEM font(unless some of the ghetto gauges that think it's cool to use a strange font) and it's a real nice hie of blue and red. I'll dig around for some more lit pics when I get home. they're from autobacs1 on ebay(formerly unitedindiglo) he had to change his name because indiglo is trademarked lol



and during the day

i've been eyeing these for a while.. the accord version recently came out. if you look at some of the civic ones, like this one:

http://209.87.151.155/detail.asp?PRO...=EGHC9600EA-S7

there is a lot more white color, especially in the numbers. maybe its just the photo they took for the accord gauges, but they look fcuking purple. i don't understand why they would change it from model to model.. so i'm hoping its just the picture, but thats probably just wishful thinking. otherwise, they look sweeeeet. i'm going to wait till i see some more photos from people who buy them and install them before i decide.
