has anyone installed these on a 5gen lude. i just got mine and wanna know if i could install em myself or is it to complicated. :alien:

If you are not sure on how to install them i would get someone that knows how to install them to do it b/c you can seriously mess up the gauges if you accidentally put a hold in them when installing them or if you mishandle them...it shouldn't cost too much to install them...i think the place here does it for like about 20.

Yeah i would definitly get someone who knows how to do it . Like justin said if you mess up it will throw off your mph and how much gas you have and etc. Just pay a little bit to get it done the right way ;)

i guess you're right, i just don't want to pay to have someone install guages, you know what i'm saying. good looking out though:smoker:

anytime man ...it's just i wouldn't my shit to be $#@! up and then i would just be REALLY pissed :mad:

you're right, ill look for an interior place around me

Yeah i have a friend who tried to install it but he touched the needles...make sure you avoid that since it throws the accuracy off on your gauges...good luck

the accuracy of the needles will be hindered if you touch them!! cause they work on a coil and if the coil is bent or moved off a lil it wont display the correct settings whatever they may be!!

well, i just got back from my cousins garage. he said that he would be able to install the gauges and from what it looks like they were installed correctly. i closed my eyes when he was threading the gauge through the needle so if he did hit it i wouldn't know. the temp and gas work fine, i tested out the tach by hitting vtec (and that was all normal) there is just no way for me to really know if the speedo is off. i didn't memorize any speeds at certain rmp. anyway, they look good and i think it was worth the 60 bucks. :flash:

good job :D

that was hilarious man the part of you saying that you closed your eyes so you wouldnt know! haha your 0-60 time might increase now :) j/k... i would have done same thing... good job tho! hope it looks good..:frog:

you know what though, i have a feeling inside me that doesn't trust the gauges now. i know it sounds gay, but everyone put these thoughts inside my head and said they would be off and now i don't trust them. oh well. oh yea, and it didn't cost me anything, yea....

do what i did when i got my bigger rims.. drive next to one of your buddies at about 55 or 60 and either call him on a cell or yell out the window like i did lol and ask him how fast he is goin then you can kinda get a pic of whether they are off or if there is a lil bit of a deviation.. i dont know thats what i would have done :)...

yea, good idea. thanks, i'll try it.

you should always remember! no matter how ghetto somethin be always try it lol...

yea i know, i have done even more ghetto or rigged shit in my life too. this i think will at least work. :D

haha speakin of ghetto shit.. i went to my friends yesterday and i saw him with colored christmas bulbs and he was tryin to put them in his headlights.. i have never laughed so hard in my life i like dropped to the ground cryin lol!! :D :D

does anyone know where to buy red bulbs for the rear blinkers and side markers. or, could i spray paint the ones i have right now and not have to buy any bulb.

i dont recommend spray painting the bulb.. cuase of course since i was just talking bout ghetto stuff lol i tried that and it heated to ball too much and blew it.. you can get bulbs really really cheap at www.autodynamic.com that is where i got them and they are a brilliant red color..

cool, i'll check it out a little later. i have to order them soon though, i have gotten pulled over for them twice already. thanks

what did you get pulled over for?? altezzas?!?!??!?!?! how? they have red housing and usually when they do they cant mess with you...

yea i know, that's what i thought. i missed one this though. the rear side and blinkers have clear lenses and clear bubls. the cop pulled me over for that. damn cops

what a bunch of fags.. i swear they have nothing better to do... there is a rape every 15 seconds and they wonder why they cant freakin stop em... too busy writing dumb tickets!:flipa: :finger: :flipa: :finger: :flipa: :finger:
