White face guages are in!

The white overlays I ordered from ebay finally showed up. I spent three hours installing them, While I was in there I installed a set of white face sunpro volt, temp and oil guages. I think it turned out pretty well...

What overlays did you use and how did they fit? Did the overlays cover the entire area visible on the gauges when they are installed? Were the graphics correct?

I tried a set a while back and gave up becasue they fit poorly and the number placement on the speedo was way off.

I had the same problem when I first bought a set off of Ebay when I first bought my truck so I ended up designing my own. So many people liked them and asked for them that I sell them now.
I spent many days working on getting the number alignment perfect. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. It sure sucks to buy something from someone who didn't care or take the time to make the product just right.

The graphics were fine, at least on the overlays that fit my cluster. They sent along an overlay for each type of cluster you happen to have (Gas guage or tach) The tach had a big black streak on it, I'm glad I have the big gas guage or I would have been a little mad. The overlays cover only the visible areas, and don't include an overlay for the HVAC controls.

Thanks for the comments!
