What do you mean you have to swap your odometer from your original cluster?????

Why would it not start if you did not do this???
Click to expand...

The odometer is contained on its own little circuit board. When you swap instrument clusters, you need to move your original odometer circuit board over to the new cluster.

The computer that runs the engine, verifies that your original odometer circuit board is there, and has not be hacked. If it finds anything wrong, it will not allow your engine to start.

Have ya'll noticed how the 99 and up aftermarket gauges have a nice thick frame/ring around them? Do they offer anything like that for the 98 and down models?

How well does the color match with the SOS pods? Or did you have to paint it? If so what did you use?

Is this what you are referring to (red arrows)?



If so, you can get those for any 99-04 cluster from Explicit Auto: http://www.explicitauto.com/

no, the thick frame around the gauges that give them a deep-dish look (inset). There's like a 'lip' on around them

yeah Ambo, then Speed of Sound sent all the customers who bought the pods between certain dates new ones...they had a bad batch get out. The guy posted in Ambo's thread in tech yesterday....very good customer service. They will get my business.
