Actually getting to the faces are the easy part getting them out is another story.
here it goes.
1. u have to remove the 2 screws on the roof of the instrument cluster panel.
2. just pull the front cluster cover , it is held with clips so do not be scared when u hear em clip out[i thought i broke something and first time they take quiet an effort] .
3. u will see 4 screws holding the actual cluster ina box .get the screws out.The whole thing comes out[no wires just contacts] so get it out.
4.Now i took it inside and worked on it.
5.Remove the platic glass cover[u will need some help as they are held with clips and u have remove atleast 3 at a time to get the thing out.
6.I do not remember but thing there i another layer of plastic[the one with the D-3-2-1 painted on it[held with clips agian] .
7.Now u should be there .
8.small scews Hold the gauge face plate take it out.[watch out there is small stick[the actual needle stopper so u just take it out and put it in the new one]
9I used a fork to wedge the needles out ,but as i told the fuel and temp are i guess too fragile as i broke the thin connector-[90$ to replace em].
so i ended up with 2 faces glowing in all the colors[sports from hdk] and 2 normal ones.
10.I have a plan , i am going make a small slit on the faces and slip it without getting the needle out and try again.I think it should work as there is some space and i will tighen it will the screw holding the old face plate.
I will post my pic judge for urself it looks cool all the dails are black except the tacho and speedo [the big and main ones.It looks cool alot of complements as in the night they look awesome and its very unique .i will get a pic
