NoKturnaL · 12-08-2004, 12:33 PM

Is it an easy plug n play type install???

ChrisXoxide · 12-08-2004, 01:39 PM

Yes. Put one in my car

If I can install something, anyone can. Comes with pictured instructions, very detailed and exact. I was impressed.

I'm sure it is. I remember putting the white face gaugues in my 98 v6. To get that whole gauge pod out, once you get everything unscrewed you just disconnect 2 connections that snap in from behind the whole pod itself.

All you need is a 7mm socket and a set of torx bits. Or is ther slicing involved?

There is no cutting or anything. It connects to the stock lighting, the instructions show how to do it.

It even comes with the Torx bits, so the only tool you even need at all is a 7mm socket and a philips screwdriver.

Does the glow from the new Simco (or Auto Meter) gauge cluster reflect up onto the windshield at night? I am asking because in my 2003 Mustang, the light from the digital odometer can be seen in the windshield at night. Noticed this right away when I bought it. Just curious if brightly lit gauges would cause more reflection. Thanks, Ray

I just bought it on MT and got it the other day. It took exactly 36 minutes from beginning to end to install. Not really plug and play because you have to swap out the circuit board. Other than that, the instructions are pretty clear. Also, I have noticed a slight reflection in the window but nothing too distracting.
