///BHRpowered Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 In an attempt to source other parts I ran across these in austria. They look weird imo, but might look better on US gauges http://cgi.ebay.at/Alu-Tachoringe-Mazda-xe...%3A1|240%3A1318 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ing-schu@online.no Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 The actual photo displays a BMW cluster. I think I'd prefer cutos suggestion, www.xedos-community.de or similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted January 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 oh...your one of those people... yes it looks alittle weird to me, but it could look ok if done right. I'm wondering how it looks at night though, if it reflects any light to unwanted areas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ing-schu@online.no Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 One of those people? If trying to keep up while being away from home, writing a single centence taking ages, not to mention download time, is being one of those people, then so be it. Ps. Still on the cell. Ps2.

///BHRpowered Posted January 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 I don't do internet phones, unneeded and wasteful. I remember the best vacation I ever took was in jan 2003. I turned my cell phone off for a week, and even then, I was so far away no one could get a hold of me anyway, just went snowboarding every day, pizza and REAL video games at night, pancakes for breakfast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 depending on quality and the amount, seems more cost efficent to just get them overseas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwmcqueen Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Well, those rings are around $40 USD shipped. The question now is, how to attach them to the gauge cluster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted February 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 I assume they just sort of click in, glue at the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwmcqueen Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 I assume they just sort of click in, glue at the most Possibly....I noticed some noise in the forums about the 2002 gauges and the lack of ability to modify them. Since that is what I have, I may have ordered these for no use. If so, anyone want them when I get them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwmcqueen Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Well, just got the email they are being shipped. Now to figure out how to get access to my gauges on my 2002. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 All you are doing is removing the cluster (there is a separate thread somewhere with instructions on one of the sites, it's not that much fun actually) and removing the clear plastic front by prising off the clips all around the side.

ChiTown Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Well, just got the email they are being shipped. Now to figure out how to get access to my gauges on my 2002. uh oh... those gauge rings wont fit on the 02 gauges, as far as i can see. I will buy them off you if they dont work however.

dwmcqueen Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 They are yours, once I get them. I've been told they have shipped (I think - it was German and Babelfish translated poorly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
