hey guys,

has anyone installed indiglo gauges on their s14?

If so, how do I take off the damn das panel.  I unscrewed the two screws on the outside by the glass for the cluster.  But I still couldnt take it out.

Is it really hard to do?  Im clueless.  I dont want to mess anything  up.

Someone please help.

you have to pop out the plug for the dimmer (on the left) and the cruise control (on the right). Then its just the plastic in front of the gauges. Theres a few more screws and hinges, but those are easy. From there you can do whatever.

Be careful where you buy your gauges from though. I bought some from IndigloGauges.com and i had to send them back because the didnt line up right(the red line was WAY off and so was the speed). Maybe i just got a bad set, but still be carefull man.

No, i didnt have to. To make it easier, you can take off the plastic shell behind the steering wheel...I think its like 5 or 6 screws.
