All I can say is Mike Croke at http://www.mc-machine.com makes a SUPER nice piece. This thing fits like a glove. Absolutely NO problem with the install. Beau at Mental Addiction (480-203-7028) is the guy to call if you want one. He's extremely easy to deal with and always gives me awesome prices. I bought the plate for 150 and the gauges I also bought from Beau. Anyway.. it came out extremely nice.

Its CNC aluminum and its DIRECT SWAP and all the little lights are cut out into the aluminum with lights included... I dunno I thought it was fair.

I dunno....it looks clean in and of itself, but I don't think it fits the Fox dash very well. If you're happy with it, though, more power to ya.

How was the install? PITA or relatively easy? I assume that if you went with electrical gauges that the wires were a direct connect to the old ones. Also, were the panels offered in, say, black? That's the only thing holding me back from ordering one. I don't like the bright look.

Panels are offered in black anodized but I didnt have phantom gauges.. I expect it would look pimp though.

The install is a breeze.. just need to dremel out the rear plastic so so the gauges can sit back (took 2 minutes) and then everything else fits it like stock.

I agree 100% man! It definitely sticks out. But as long as you like it.

Florida 5.0 offers an entire cluster like that, full of Autometers, direct fit, for about $400. Not sure if your deal was better, but it's been done.

It does look good though, but I'd like my aux gauges a little smaller cuz they look cluttered to me.

Looks good. We need more quality interior pieces to choose from. Sick of carbon fiber looking crap.
