Swapping speedometers

If so, anybody know how?

Sorry I don't have a link, but it is really easy. Lots of companies make colored faces for the gauges you have now. Simple and not too expensive, just look around.

i have a SS cluster in my LS....and i actually do use it....cuz my car is tuned to go 163mph.....
SS cluster is a direct swap...just plug and play

all you have to do is make sure that if your car is an 05-06 make sure that u get a cluster off a 05-06 car

and if its an 07 get an 07 cluster or else your DIC will not work
