its easy just take apart the gauge set and get two butter knifes and pull off the needles then flip it over take out the screws and pull off the leds by the needles and for the big ones u use the 4 led strips tops are positive bottoms negative solder the black one up top and the red on bottom except on the gas gauge its reverse the top are negative and the bottom is positive solder it up and seal it up except the front just install it in your dash because the needles are prob gonna be off but don't move with ur figer it won't work pull off the needles and readjust them and try it again
(sorry no puncuation i r no edukated)

looks sick dude
i deff want to get this same exact setup as you have
it looks so good
my sister got the kit from them but she didn't get the led chips well she got them with the kid but she didn't have them installed and i must say it looks horrible with out them
she said the place she brought it to wouldn't do the led chips because they said if the leds blow out the whole cluster is messed up

also hers sometimes when you put the directional on it doesn't go off automatically it stays on a few seconds longer

I am really thinking about ordering these...

But if i do that. I would go ahead and buy guages and 3 pod pillar.

300 for guages and pod. and how much did this cost?

went today to see how much it would cost to install this if i plan on buying one the guy said around 120-150 since it will take 1-2 hours
is that a little high?

i would say so i'll make u a deal send me ur gauge set and ur new backlay and leds and i'll set the needles and ship it to u for 80 or if u want u can buy a custom gauge set for the ss/na 140mph and that way you can keep ur gauges while i get it installed and i'll install it and send to u for 100 shipped
new gauge set then you have a new set or gauges to sell and it will take 5 mins for ur install of ur car
and it will be cheaper then them installing it
