One of the members at sixspeed said it is a 30min DIY and quite easy, I'll confirm with Loren.
I would use the OEM painted gauge faces which are just plastic inserts (same as the standard black ones), they can be purchased separately in a package.

No blue ricey-lights for me... sorry

Still a tossup to go with sand beige to match interior or go with white?

Do this, take a drivers view of the gauges photo and post it here and see what wonders photoshop can do.

Well then, there you go. Thanks Rich for posting up the info.

As for the gauges, everything that I have heard and experienced has led me believe that if that needle has to come off then it is a PITA because of the chances of putting the needle back on wrong or something in that ballpark.

what does PITA mean?
