Instrument Cluster
Thursday, April 02, 2009 3:09 PM
Putting on NUimage's white overlay face. When getting the needle heads off, metal pins came out with 3 out of the 4. Not good. Now everything is back together, and the only gauges that works is the speedo(the one the metal pin didn't come out). Half of the dash lights up due to, I guess, bulbs. Now I know that the bulbs are not changeable, or so I have heard. I guess I am looking at a new cluster which priced through the local dealership was a guestimate of about $400-450.00. But my work has a company called everdrive that i can purchase one for about $200.00. I am planning to do it again, any suggestions so I don't end up eating another $200.00. Better yet, I have heard of blackcat through the website. Are they offering just gauges for that price or are they sending out a whole new cluster? Are there any better suggestions? I would like to have white gauges during the day, while at night it goes black with blue numbers, and etc. So for my stupidity about just "hopping" to it without alittle research, has left me gaugeless, can some one please shoot me some info?

The LED and speedo upgrades from Blackcatcustom are full clusters. Contact Alex(BCC) and he should be able to come up with something that makes you happy. I have a BCC 140mph and LED upgraded cluster, it is worth every penny and i have no complaints.

Thanx for the input, but how much am I looking at through them? Is it a custom pricing thing? Does anyone have some pix of their cluster through the company.

Here is mine. The LEDs are a deeper blue that what the picture shows(like the reflection on my bezel).





Mine was just under $300 and it's just his basic 140mph cluster with blue LEDS and the shift light removed. There are a bunch of threads with other members BCC clusters posted.
