I hate effing with the dash cause 1 small misshap like the gas gauge will really set me back $$$, go here....http://search.ebay.com/Alero-Gauges_W0QQfromZR41...look further down in the selling gauge page and it'll link u to installation....im getting my mechanic to do it for me since they know what they're doing, costing me lik$10-$20....I recommend u get it professionaly installed.

eh, you can put those on without taking the needles off...done it to eh....5 aleros now, not a single issue.

i'll still stick to the safe side and not take my chances

2fst4u · 02-20-2007, 09:25 PM

do it yourself, just slide it over the needles. to easy. my 5 year old nephew could do it. all you need is a steady hand.

pimpalero2003 · 02-20-2007, 09:53 PM

take like 5 secs

see, is not just throw it on gauges, these r electric blue glow gauges, you have to WIRE it up which means fiddling around a bit underneath the dash to

diablo · 02-21-2007, 12:37 AM

also what your doing is replacing the old gauges which means taking that out which is a tight fit. u really need small fingers to unwire it, and put in the new lighting regulator....I have huge fingers

EASY AS PIE TO INSTALL>

I love(d) mine, you'll love yours too...looks like you got the huge switch/contoler....may want to invest in the digital one.

it fits up to the old light dimmer switch

stealthlero · 02-21-2007, 03:31 AM

that was one of the first things i did to my car all by myself, and it took me no more than an hour with having no prior knowledge of what the hell i was doing

I got my new guages sitting here along with the new bezal too. I just haven't gotten around to putting them on yet. Hopefully I'll have time today after I finish my honey-dos. Maybe I'll even get my new rims on too. Should be pretty simple to install. Just gotta find a handy spot to hook up the wires and mount the new dimmer. I'm hoping to just mount it in that area just below the normal one. We'll see how that goes.

jeez, I haven't done one of these in like 2 years, and I could go in there and do it in 2 minutes. it is EASY.
