But if you want to add a rpm meter i think you need to buy a guage cluster first and think on the upgrade after that.Do u have a auto one?.

kalinga Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I updated my gauge faces to elimination, witch was a eBay buy, brightness can be adjusted as well http://twitpic.com/6ypcvc http://twitpic.com/6yrwii but before i did a LED mode on a b14, but that was not that g8, but i think the elimination upgrade was the best http://twitpic.com/2nemms http://twitpic.com/2m0wb6 http://twitpic.com/2nemnb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalinga Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 (edited) did this my self, but the 1 issue is its in mp/h, its a DIY, but the issue is gurage faces are not 100% for the JDM gauges. so bit of modifications need to be done. it cost me around $60 for the kit, no tax as i was lucky to get the package delivered to my place. it took me about 2~3 hours to fix it. (yeah i had the right tools) if one is willing, i can get this done for one person and do a video on DIY FYI: here's the eBay item. http://www.ebay.com/itm/330592090091 Edited December 22, 2011 by kalinga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
