Post mods and inspiration...

so after much waiting around for work to call me in today i was able to take my entire gauge cluster out and go to work on it. (a little bit) i was originally trying to fix my speedo needle which was stuck under the pin (hopefully fixed it), ended up going to look for LEDlights for the cluster but no success, and went and bought some nickel finish spray paint and painted the bezel (i wanted to do carbon fiber but was talked into painting it and now i love how it looks). i will have before and after pics tomorrow when i get up. I plan doing more mods in the future. after i get my axles replaced i will be getting a set of drop zone adjustable coil-overs from another forum at a really good price!

there were a lot of steps that i had read but was able to skip quite a few cause my trim for my shifter and audio is cracked. basically, after you take the screws out from above the dash you pop out your dimmer switch, defrost, and possibly cruise if you have it. after that you will need to remove two screws underneath the temp and climate controls. then the rest is cake. if you need more help with it i'll give you better directions. good luck with your mods too

i just realized it might be alittle different for my car because i have a 2000 accord ex and your bezel is a little different from mine.
