Halo Gauges

[Jimbo]

Hi, i just bought the halo gauges off some guy on ebay, they should get here in a couple of days. how hard are they to install, and if there is a tutorial for it (the main site is down right now so i dont know where to look) can someone link me please? Thanks,

wow, i like the 4 min reply. very impressive. will i have to remove the needles to install the halo gauges? they are not one of the listed gauges in the faq, but i think they are similar to the reverse el gauges. also, there is a control pannel that changes the gauges from blue to green (it has 4 buttons, im not sure what they all do). What would be the best place to put this? Here is a link to the auction so u can see the details and pics...

Thanks again, James

i believe u don't have to remove the needles. you might though have to pull the needles ever so slightly so that it can give a lil bit more room for the gauge faces. this is option and u should only do it if the needles rub.

as for the control pad. mount it anywhere u want, just make sure that the area is clean. clean the area with some rubbing alcohol b4 sticking the pad on. i know for me and my pad, well i got pissed @ it for shocking me many times to i just threw it into the dash never to be found again

i have the halo's and they install just like the tutorial says. you do not need to remove your needles, just be very careful when slipping the gauges over the needles. i also used some 3m double sided tape to stick the gauges to the stock ones to prevent the needles from rubbing.

make sure that the power is OFF when u do the wiring and everything. even down to connecting the pad into the ballast. the 12 volts from the car feels a lil tingly
