How hard are these gauges to install. One place said you had to run power to them. Don't they work on the existing harnesses? Any particular brand that's better than another?

 

i bought some and there sitting in my closet somewhere.... couldnt get them on for one thing... needle has that little extra stickin out the end, people say just cut them, but f that..

 

So i own a '01 prelude...and yes the gauges won't go on cause of the needle...and do not pull the needles out...cause more than likely you will probably destroy your gauges like I did to mine...

you can learn from peoples misfortune...so i wasn't sure if you could just cut a little notch into the indiglo gauges...and that they will still work...

but i rather spend 50$ and screw up the indiglo gauges...instead of spending a few hundred replacing the gauges you messed up.

 

One of the coolest features about the 5th gen Prelude is the warm orange/red glow of the gauges (ala BMW). Why mess with that?

 

amber is great.

but yeah, the needles are very sensitive so it takes alot of patience and a gentle hand to install these indiglo things.

 

the guages will probably look good for a hot minute, but almost all guages will end up dying on you then you'll have to replace them or go back to stock. Mine died out on me (reverse indiglo guages), and now i'm just too lazy to take them out. They dont light up anymore at all.

 

yeah i got some nig rigged switch that changes it from green to blue so far its working great though i like the white+blue/green- better than the black+amber colored gauge

 

nig rigged.

try english. better yet try english that doesn't use a variant of the word "******" and uses some punctuation in your post. judging by the way you talk i'm not surprised that you want your gauge cluster to look like a civic's.

 

Monkey... I'm from the south, and I dont really want to waste my time talking like this.

 

then perhaps you should change the way you speak in a public forum. your liberal use of a particular word could offend some people, like myself.
