FYI to everyone, they fit my 1999 LX perfectly.

Let us know with future products.

Thanks Dave!

Got any pics?

I wish I could or knew how, I don't have a digital camera.

Like I said they fit perfectly. The press fit is what makes it work. You will be amazed.

There is a how to on how to remove and replace the gauge cluster, I think the thread was about installing glow gauges. Search and you will find.

Yeah, I know all about the gauge install, since I made it, heh. Just wondering how the rings would fit on a 99 without the indentations around the edges. Thanks.

These things are great. I had been thinking of painting the raised rings around the gauges, but I knew I'd never get it perfect. I'm glad Dave made these because they were just what I was looking for. Well worth the money.

I shipped 6 sets to Singapore and just found out that 2 sets were for 2nd Gen. cars and in the current configuration they do not fit. They have asked me if there is any mod. that could be done to make them fit. I would need to see/get my hands on a 2nd Gen. car to see what could be done. So for right now the rings are only good for 3rd Gen. cars. Sorry! But will be looking into the 2nd Gen. problem very soon.

I have made a couple of brushed alum. sets and sent them out along with the polished alum. ones and everyone has preferred the polished ones over the brushed. End of story. Only making the polished one now.

guage bezels. -=)
 
dave.. just recieved them today.. thanks for the ultra fast and courteous service.. you are an awesom person to deal with. -=)
anyhow. i got them home. pulled the guage cluster out and scratched the thing on the back of the steering wheel. aRgh.. oh well live and learn.. do anyone doin this.. put a towel or old shirt over it.. no biggie.. got it inside and they all actually press fit right on. to be sure i got some double sided tape. cut a thin piece that went all the way around each bezel and stuck em in.. i put a book on top of each one for about 15 minutes to allow then to set..
popped em in the car and they look AWESOME with my carbon fiber guage overlays.. and they really look good with my silver car.. ill get some pics up soon. anyone who hasnt considered these should really check them out..
-John
Dave.. thanks for everything.. awesome:bigthumb:
