Technically they aren't made specifically for the '02, but any of the indiglo/reverse indiglo gauges made for the 99-01 Galant should fit the '02's. The only thing is that you need to buy the 99-01 gauge bezel, which ours doesn't come with. It's @$36 from www.oem-car-parts.com.
I've done this mod on my '02 and so have a few others.

Everything VTGalant said is true , just get the gauge bezel for the 2001 Galant and put it on yours its real easy. I got the Reverse Indiglo gauges that GDI had a while ago don't know if they still have since they closed shop.
Here is how they look.

Just one thing BE CAREFUL WHEN PUTTING THE GAUGES ON, I FUCKED UP MY GAS GAUGE. JUST BE GENTLE WITH IT.
Good luck.

Giz,
You sure you fucked up the gauge or just its setting? The gas gauge is on a dampening solenoid. Bes thing to do is to move it all the way to E and fill up with gas. The gauge should readjust itself in a couple days, unless you pulled off the needle or damaged the solenoid.

When I fill the tank up the needle goes up to about 1/4 tank and thats it. I never pulled off the needle, i have filled up the tank and manually move the needle to full but it just drops down to the 1/4 tank marker. Haven't tried moving it to E then filling it up guess I'll try that method. Thanks for the tip.

You actually have two options:
1) The 99-01 Stock Gauge Bezel
or
2) The Brushed Aluminum Gauge Bezel from www.Speedhut.com (Its only $20)
Here is a picture:

speaking of speedhut, if enough of u 02 and 03 owners get together, u guys can get some indiglow guages made for your cars...thats even without the bexel cuz i know some of u guys might not want a new bezel
o yea 1 more thing. this a good tip for all the 8g owners but more specifically the 2k2+ owners w/a bezel. stick some white paper on the oem gauges where the turn signal and the CES lights etc are. uhm yea its gonna dim the lights a lil bit but, how often does ur CES light go on etc. and if it does go on, you'll see the color. just makes things match a lil bit more

good idea. I think I'll try to find some semi-transparent white plastic like onion skin effect.
