06 GMC Build - I guess????

i hate the 20mph increments and the slanted font they use on the esky clusters. would bother me to look at. dfw just the bezel and needles though on my cluster
Word. That's the only thing I didn't like about mine

I got a 20% off coupon from Auto Anything so it wasnt that bad. That stupid bezel is 80 bucks from dorman, and i paid 190 for the cluster, needles and bezel. Feel pretty good about that price. Only thing i didnt notice was that the speed is in 20mph increments, and i didnt notice that until it was pointed out on a forum.

Is a good price for sure. 50 bucks off eBay price
 
It doesnt really bother me, just never noticed it until it was pointed out. There's lots of 30/35 around here but everyone pretty much rolls at 40 so im not worried about it, just thought it was weird.

In other news, the heated seats have been working flawlessly and they are sure nice when its been 12* the past 2 mornings. Outside of the MH1 retro, they might be the best mod i've done yet
 
Overlay will be here friday.

Only thing im "worried" about is getting the needles to line back up properly. Especially since the old gauge face will be gone for reference but im sure it will be fine
 
What i did when i had to take them off to do the LEDs was i put tape down where the needles stopped when i pushed them back. Then when i put it back together, i manually turned the needles back until they lined back up. I had to take them apart 2 or 3 times for whatever reason and its been working out fine. i think what I'll do is essentially that and take a picture and try to get em back close. Im sure it wont be a big deal.
 
BOOO!!! it lights up blue anyway. bah. But the white needles look pretty cool against it and it looks better then the boring old cluster so im happy with it. Pictures to follow. Going to be very nice today, will probably wash it, so i might go snap photos as well.

Also, birthday is coming up and wifey asked what I wanted, probably going to order a set of 2" spacers for all the way around.
 
You should buy big tex's predators :read:

Oh i saw and thought about it. but then i'd need tires and mine are brand new. craigslist sucks here so yeah. plus id feel bad ruining them eventually.

Let's see this cluster!

once the kiddo is in bed i will pull the DSLR photos off

You can also see in the center console where my heated seat switches are in the old 12v spots, and my big light bar toggle switch is in the bottom pocket.

And one of it being purple for fun, since i dont think i ever posted good colormatched photos
