Ok Who has the best White Faced Gauges..
I'm looking for Some Easy Nice Good ones.
Who here has gotten some and was the install hard or easy??
I've heard horrabile storys of having to drive and put the needle back on while driving 50mph??
 
I think that most people tend to go with the MAC gauges (at least I notice it by looking at peoples sigs). If you have the time to really dedicate yourself to the install, you can do a great job. It's a fairly easy install if you pay attention to the details and take your time. Take many pics of your stock gauges with the car on and off and while your driving at about 50mph. Make sure the car is cold when you do this cause when you check your new gauges, the car will be cold. Its not that hard to put the needles back on the car, I just put all the needles back on in the car, with the engine running. As long as you take your time and not rush it, it will be easy. The hardest part is taking the headlight knob off to get the gauge cluster out of the car. Hope this helps!!

I was going to install NR auto gauges this spring. there is a review of them here on stangnet here should be the link http://reviews.stangnet.com/review.cgi?ID=311
I like them because the whole face lights up at night like the '03 Cobra
I live in Tinley Park, thats pretty close to Homewood! Cool!

I have the NR gauges in my car, and all I can say is they look bad ass, at day and night!

Is the wiring difficult? Thats the only thing I'm worried about. I've had my gauge cluster out before so the light knob isn't a problem. So the installation and putting the needles back on wasnt to hard then I take it?
 
no man its so damn easy well in mine it is anyway! i got a 96gt and it jsut one big cluster of wires in a bunch that you unplug and put right back in. took me total about 20 min to do!

I didnt have to do any wiring during the install. They came out awesome. I just took my time and worked slowly. I didnt get any instructions with my kit, so i followed the MAC instructions I borrowed from a friend. It really makes the interior look so much better!
