I'd buy some, but I can never ever ever find them for a S5 TII...I can find them for S4 n/as, s4 TII, S5 n/as, first gens, you name it, but no S5 TIIs, In fact, if anyone can find me a good set of reverse glow white face S5 TII gauges, where just the numbers light up without the halo in the middle...I will paypal you $2....just think about it, thats like a gallon of gas....you know you want to look!

Anywho, I wouldn't usually get so obessive over something so small thats cosmedtic, and sorta a ricer mod....but all my aftermarket gauges are green and blue and white faced...and the orange main gauges are starting to look really out of place.

I wonder if CS sells any of those faces? They're a bit pricey.

I really like the stock ones, I had a set of other guages that were similar to vampyerx's but just slightlty uglier. not that yours are uglier vamp
Anyways threw that **** right out.

What I really really want are some glow in the dark gauges that are clean, just stickers that you can put over the stock ones that are different colors and such.

I found the faces on eBay and bought an FD cluster for the needles. The FD's only have three small gauges and two large, so I still have the FC needle on the boost gauge. It doesn't matter, though, my boost gauge doesn't work with my Microtech so I really didn't need the clear needle for it anyway.

It really wasn't that bad installing everything, the bitch part was getting it all together.

Installation isn't to bad, pulling out the gauges themselves is real easy. Just remove the plastic assembly with all your switches in it, turn signal, hazard, etc. There are three screws on the inside top and two on each side on the bottom. Put the steering wheel as low as it can go, and then pull the assembly out a little. At this point disconnect all the wiring harness's and then just remove the assembly. The guages will now be exposed with a glass covering on them, there are more screws to remove this part and then your ready.
