Default What do you think?

I was thinking about getting these gauges on Ebay and I was wondering what you guys thought about them. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-02...spagenameZWD1V

I know that you cant spell CRAP without APC but surely they cant screw up
gauge overlays. Any input would be much appreciated.

WARNING: DO NOT BUY THOSE OVERLAYS MADE BY APC!!!!!!!!

when i bought my truck these exact ones were on my gauge cluster, by the time i got it home the gauge needles were already sticking so i had to buy a new gauge cluster, i didnt particularly care for them anyways

the APC logo doesnt show when installed but when i got the cluster out and saw the logo i said, damn it! i know exactly whats wrong with, it APC!!

just watch the glue. Let them dry completely before you put the cluster back in. The glue can run to the needles and it to gauge and you know what happens next. I would also but blue needles to match orange and blue just don't go in my opinion.

Yeah I cleared my needles and I have blue LEDs behind my cluster So if not APC is there anyone else I can look to that isn't as expensive as 70 bucks for the Nu Image ones?
