Talking White Gauge Faces Installed!

Check em out...gotta get a new bezel cuz the one that came had cracked lens when I unpacked. Still, looks nice even w/o the Firebird Bezel!

It's an easy install Matt, I've done it. Everything comes right out with almost no tools required. I think you may need a 7mm socket and that's about it.

Marty, I think all SS's should've had white gauge faces, they look phenominal!! Well done buddy!!

Yeah, I got the decals from Brett. I got the white faces from Macewen Motorsports. Also got the Firebird bezel and lens, but it had a busted lens when it arrived, so I just put the faces on. Now that I'm lookin at it I'm thinkin I shoulda only bought the face overlays anyways. The overlays are way under $100. I think it's $139 for the bezel and overlays. Very very simple install...7mm wrench. Kind of a bitch to get the overlays to match the holes on the original face, but no biggie. You can move em around when applying them.

Anyways, hey guys...I accidentally pulled my RPM needle off when doing the install and now it sticks a bit. You think maybe I put it on too tight and the overlay's gettin in the way, or I need to do something else to get it to work right?

It does look awesome. Def the best appearance mod done yet. Thanks folks!
