Cluster Gauge trim install?
i ordered my self one of these for my car how hard is it to put on?
|
It's simple.
Lower steering wheel all the way, take out two 7mm (i think) bolts that hold the black trim on. Pull that out (unplug the trip meter button) then take out the 4 7mm bolts holding the cluster in....pull cluster out some and unplug it. Now you have the cluster sitting on the table.....turn it face down and find the little black tabs that hold the clear plastic piece to the cluster.....pop them one by one and gently start prying it apart until it separates.....throw that thing on and out it back together. When taking the cluster out of the car (and the trim that goes around it) be careful. You have to tilt it to get it out of the hole.....don't just yank the pieces out or you will break something. |
I want to say that you have to remove the needle... dont quote me on that but I think thats how my needles got messed up
|
Not with that faceplate... if it was the actual gauge overlay it would be required but still not necessary. I got mine on without taking the needles off just had to be really careful.
Billy got this installation bang on! Simple as anything just be patient so you don't lose clips or screws!! |
K I finally got it in the mail today I'm going to put her on! Haha I also ordered more chrome for the car ill post picures in a bit! But for now I need to figue out how to put the thing on!
|
So I just got in from trying to put it on and its -46 out side so I let my car warm up and then tryed it but I lost a bolt so came in and said eff it! I spent like 20 min trying to disconect the trip button!

I know the feeling here as well...there are times when it gets plenty cold in Kansas...luckily the ultra super crappy levels of cold have stayed away this year and it has only gotten down to super crappy temperatures a few times
