Dissection of a 3rd Gen cluster for colour change

[99 Pro]

well I wanted to get the stock white faced gauges from an 02 protege but after hearing about the extreme difficulty changing them I decided to go with an aftermarket white face. does any one know a link that sells a White face, blue or red lighting, slip on guage face?

Maybe try ebay. Careful with those things though....the needles break very easily.

I combined a 99 and 02 cluster. The faces are white and it lights up red. If you have a cluster with black faces I'll do a straight up trade.

Ya I just got mine in from Corksport yesterday and installed them last night. Keep in mind that they are more expensive than what u could find on ebay. 82 dollars worth to be exact, but I must say that they look awesome! I got the white faces that light up blue lettering. It looks like a VW instrument when lit up. I like them alot. They slipped right over the stock faces and over the needles. Must be careful but it works. I will post some pics of them lit up tonight!
Note: I dont know if they make them specifically for your year of car...

please do post pics BUCK. the gauges will work for any 99-03 pro. some models lose the low gas warning dot and others lose the drivetrain symbols.

I will post them as soon as I finish hooking back up some wires I neglected to reconnect (oops) Right now I don't have any Hvac lights and my needles aren't lighting up But those gauges look damn good (thumb) I should have them up in a day or two.

Check out my new gauge faces guys!

Hey guys here are those pics of my new gauges from Corksport as promised. I love em!

Sorry about the poor pic quality, I don't have a digital cam yet, so I had to use my Cell phone!

hey those are nice!! not what I expected them to look like that's for sure. I haven't even looked, but do you know if they make a MPH/KPH verson for us metric canadians?

Looks good Buck!

P.S. Your tail lights will be shipped out tonight.

Im not sure if they do make a KPH version or not. I would check with Corksport.com. I didn't see anything mentioned about KPH versions but maybe if u call them they can hook something up for u. Tiwing I know you are wanting something subtle but different, I think these are pretty subtle when compared to the other reverse glow gauges out there. They are nice and simple. Thats why I like them.

Hey thanks Tyler! I am looking forward to getting them.
