OKay guys i installed my carbon fiber guage bezel and the DaveB Custom Bezel Rings Today they look awesome infact here's how how they look

They give off this really cool glow at night but i was unable to capture it on Camera, Very cool indeed, thanks daveb, btw the msp is a lil different, you cant just take the first peice off after unscrewing the two screws we have this lil red light on ours thats wired so wath i had to do was pop off the lower dash under the steeringwheel, then pop off the colum under the steering wheel which is 3 screws then you have to take the top part of the steering colum off to allow enuf room to wiggle the peice to the left and hanging down while you unscrew the last three screw and unplug the guages to pull them out. But your instructions were dead on very everything else it worked perfect. :)
Lemme know what you guys think. i got the carbon fiber guage bezel off ebay they have aluminum ones as well. look for one that is 99-03 guage bezel.
The bezel rings i got from daveb off this forum he's a cool guy even took the time to make a installation video very cool.

Also i accented my interior with some orange vinyl i didn't wanna go too tacky so i just did the front air vents the one on the left and the rigth i'll post a picture below, lemme know what you guys think. i dunno if im gonna keep the orange vinyl or not.

DaveB Custom Bezel Rings 30.00
Carbon Fiber Guage Bezel 29.00
Orange Vinyl 19.00 <i didn't use all of it just the ones for the air vents.
 
Looks awesome I like the Mazdaspeed tachometer... keep it up I will have to post when I am done with mine...
 
btw i was looking at the picture they vinyl looks pretty bad in the picture and kinda blury i'll have to take another, i admit its not exact ont he vinyl like doesnt fit like it should i'll look into buying some orange vinyl and cutting it myself
rather than buying precut.
actually i think i'll be doing that shortly it'll do for now.
 
hmm i was thinking of getting a bezel from ebay. can't decide on which style tho. the carbon looks really good. i wonder how the chrome, alum, and colored carbon(s) look.
 
i dunno, i chose carbon fiber becuz of the fake carbonfiber along side the dash which i think im gonna replace with real carbon fiber eventually. but for now this will do.
 
That looks great. as for me, I was tossing around the idea of getting the CF bezel from my ride, but decided just to stick with the aluminum bezel rings from Daveb. Those rings really do ad something to the car dont they?!

My advice dont get the aluminum one it is a piece of crap! It doesnt stay on the gauges and rattles like a mother when it comes loose. Plus the CF looks alot better.

Hey I got the same CF gauge bezel and just installed it las tnight too but didn't take any pics. I'm def getting those bezel rings. I've been looking everywhere for them. And I bought the alum from ebay too, the cheap one that was like $15. DO NOT BUY IT. It doesn't fit for s***. Go with the CF or Silver CF one with the 3M adheasive backing. IT fit perfectly and it looks really nice. I have no complaints whatsoever. The only prob is it's like $35 w/ shipping for em.
