indiglo guages question

[Sonicxtacy02]

Can someone explain to me how these gauges on ebay can be installed without removing the needles? Does anyone have these. I cant imagine them going on correctly without fooling with the needles!

post a link on the ebay ones and I'll have a look. I got indiglos from speedhut and you put them on without removing the needles. the glo peice is one piece and the faces are three separate ones. it is tricky to route the glo piece through all 4 needles but it can be done. the speedo and rev faces were easy, the hard one was the fuel/temp face. <BR>Hope that helps some.

Thanx for the link<P>They look very similar to the speedhut one's. If they are of the same concept as the speedhut one's then they should work fine. <P>I have the reverse indiglos and gauge rings from speedhut, they look great. white face with darkblue eurostyle font and custom logo.<P>good luck those look like they may fit ok.

Maddbuck:<P>Can you post some pics of your guages at night?

I got them. I had to cut the back end of the needles off on the speedometer and the rpm's so they would fit over. They look really good and I took a picture of them. I just need to develop the pictures, then I'll post them when I get them back.

I have a couple of night pictures but they are on my website which I still have not got up yet. <BR>I took a few more last night and digitally enhanced them so they would look more acurate but the best alternative is to take them with a 35mm camera which I'm too lazy to do right now, maybe in the future.

You don't have to cut the butts off the needles. I carefully folded the cover (like a taco) and slipped them on. If I run across a digicam I'll snap some pics.

I just installed these Indiglo gauge faces (brand name Speed-Glo) today. I bought them in a dutch auction on eBay. Don't pay more than 49.95 if you do cause that's what the two color ones cost direct from a mail order house.<P>The instructions are generic and they pretty much bite when it comes to installing them on an MX-3. I also had never removed the instrument cluster before and I didn't have a shop manual for my '93. The online shop manual is for a '94 and didn't work too well for me. The trickiest part was the lower dash cover, on the right hand side is a cover for an optional switch mine did not have. Remove this to find a screw behind it. I almost ripped this thing out thinking the right side was clipped in place.<P>Maddbuck, you're absolutely right the fuel/temp face was the toughest. I accidently popped the stinkin' fuel needle off trying to get the thing on. That damn tall clock set stalk definitely makes things complicated. I'd love to know the trick to getting that face on. JustinH, I also cut the ends off the speedo and tach needles with a Dremel tool because I was afraid of tearing the faces.<P>I also installed a Speedhut aluminum gauge surround. The combination of the white faces, aluminum rings, and black background looks pretty good!!
