Hey guys i just noticed that the Dash lights don't work. Neither does my electronic speedometer, and my HUD one. what could i do to fix it? could i just swap out the electronic one and replace it with a standard Speedometer??

Nahh. It costs waaaay too much money. (Think, you've gotta get an air-pressured gauge vs. the digital one.)

I don't know why wouldn't these work. Check your fuses, I'm sure there's something that has to do with interior lights <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>. If you end up NOT finding a fuse, post back, I'll tell you how to take your dashboard apart without breaking anything. (unfortunately, I didn't ask for help the first time I had to do it, but I learned.)

I'm going to install this weekend:

6 hyperwhite gauge cluster bulbs
carbonfiber gauge overlays
intelliglow blue needle kit

I got detailed instructions on how to take apart the cluster from importintelligence when I got these in the mail... If you really want me to, I could type it up.. no wait I could scan it... unless that infringes on copyright or somehting?

Well before i even read this, i was looking at the fuses and i din't find one that was burnt out. S13Grl how do you know how fast you are going??? Could i just get aftermarket gauges and hook them up??? the only problem would be going from digital to gauges... hopfully i can fix it, but then again if it breaks upgrade it.

<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> How do I figure it out? Well, at 2500 RPMs in 1st gear, I'm doing about 10-15. 2500 RPMs in 2nd, I'm doing around 20-25, 2500 in 3rd gear, doing about 35 and in 4th gear 40. It's real easy!

P.S. I don't know if they still use a speedometer cable.

Drift style... Are all of your gauges *working* and not lit up? Or are they not working and not lit up?

If they are just not lit up, that should be really easy to fix... Let me know what's up.

None of the gauges light up, and the speedometer, odometer , and the trip gauge work every so often.

It's a sad thing when it breaks. I don't have a speedo. I also don't feel like coughing up 600 bucks for one.
