got mine on ebay!! was liek 25 shipped i belive

ebay...ebay...where you at? lol...thanks guys...SLVCELI that was the one

was it hard to put on?

It just sticks on. Here is a picture of it on

that is seriously badass.

so i don't have to take anything apart (glass piece?)
and who did your LCDs??? because i'm not good enough to replace those...so who can i find to do them lol.

You have to take the gauges out but if you follow the first few steps here it will show you https://celicahobby.com/ubbthreads/thread.f_149125_0_collapsed_2__1.html . And the glass piece comes off and you just stick it on. A guy whose name on teamcelica.com is Hammer installed them for me. I drove about an hour to get him to install the led's since I didnt want to mess with the install. Last I heard you could send your gauges to rjautoworks but I dont know if you could have any downtime from your car.

now that is good news...

yea they are on ebay sometimes, jsut have to be paitent. or jsut get them from procar. Takeing apart the bezel isnt to bad. done it a ton now to do s7's then led swap, then paint needles, and to put these one. One thing you have t know, the 2 plugs in the back of the gague will be a bitch to put on. jsut keep at it and pull them. i tried slowly weddgeing a screwdriver to pry them off

what LED's does that pic shot have?


because oddly enough thats the setup i wanted lol

I have indiglo reverse gauges that I got from procarparts.com that hook up to the battery. The only led's are the ones on the right for the gas lcd screen.

what did you do with ur needles then. I swapped leds behind the gages too so i coudl get the blue needles as well.

bump, i still wanna see night pics lol

lol i dont have a camera. i am going home next week and will take pcis then. for now i have old pics before i swapped out the leds.

THATS ALL I NEED TO SEE...i want one.

when you install it, does it mess up your speed gauge...as far as setting it off by 5 mph

are you talking about the carbon fiber or the S7 gauges? carbon fiber doeisnt mess up anything. The S7's are easier to install if you take off the needles, esp becasue they are 3d so the needles may get stuck if you dont take them off and push them on nto all the way Is pretty easy. MY mph is currently off by 5. i plan to pace with my dad when i go home for spring break and correct it

oh wow that looks sick!

The needles were just stripped of the orange and a blue sharpie was used over them. They dont light up at night but I was told if I wanted to I could put white paint behind the needle and it would light up.


Mine is off by about 5 mph too.

if you did white paint they would glow orange. I deff think the led swap was one of the best mods

There is no more orange paint on the needles and the gauges are indiglo so it stops the orange from coming through. How would it glow orange?

i got the bezel for $24 shipped off ebay. What is the name of your gauges hombre?

i dont recall but i think only 1 guy sells them goodjob. sorry slvceli i didnt know that ur gauges stopped the light form comign through. becasue made mine white before doing the led sway and becasue the leds in there are orange stil the white just glowed orange But the s7 gauges let in all the light from behind the needles. Love the supercahrger btw

Its cool. I am pretty sure it wouldnt light up orange but o well. O and thanks.

Sorry but it`s never real carbon.

how so? i have worked with carbon fiber and the stuff used for the bezel is the same i have used. now the silver and black checkerboard is not real but this stuff seems to be. Sure its not layed same way as say an f1 (where they pressure cook it) but its still the same stuff. I maybe wrong but dont think so.

That`s real Carbon Fiber only red

so whats your point. Here i'll post some below too. are you trying to point out the weve patter difference? Just becasue its not int he 2x2 pattern, its still carbon fiber. there are all kinds of patters. I dont see how your trying to say this isnt carbon fiber.

All of these were done by me. All are real carbon fiber 2x2 twill. the bezel is the same material jsut chedkerd style. When you hold it up to the light you can see through the twill wher its now percetly allighed so its not vinyl. waht do you say it is?

I think its real carbon fiber too. It says directly that it is real carbon fiber. Unless you are gonna say they are straight up lying?

did you make the red overlay? if you did the workyourself then you knwo enough aobut carbon fiber to know its real. need some good reasoning why its not. aight i gotta pack up to go home. woohoo for spring break. hopefulyl you will see our way by the time i get back on the boards jsut playn with ya bro. if you did the overlay, nice work. what did you use for the epoxy?
