Default ebay gauges

I did a search, and a few people said they were garbage...but that was like 2 people. Who has tried these? for 20 bucks, they look pretty sweet. Here is a pic: http://outdoors.webshots.com/photo/2...2811552HGNgxi]

I have them in 2 of my other cars. They are awesome and how could anyone say they are garbage? It's a gauge that overlays your stockers and lights up, not much to it. They don't peel, crack, nothing pretty simple design. They are bright I will tell you that. Like i said I have these in my other cars and have had them installed for about 4-5 years and they still look great. The design/material is top notch

That was my thought...where do companies get off charging 75+ for some overlays.....
This price is right, and I hope your telling the truth...because I'm ordering a set tonight

Did you have to remove the needles to put these on?

Yes you will since it won't slip over or you would see the under part.I'm actually ordering a set also should go well with the aluminum rings. Hardest part is taking it all apart not hard just time consuming. Good luck I have the multi colored one in my other car. Goes nice with my boost and wideband gauge.
