Just wanna say thanks to everyone for the good advice and directions on installing the indiglo gauges. It was a little easier than I thought. Only thing was I connected them to the dimmer and I had very little room to try and crimp the connectors. Then before I put everything back together, I tried them out to make sure everything was working fine. Well, I noticed that when I would turn the lights on, my door locks would lock. When I turned them off they would unlock. Then I would hear a ticking sound from under the hood like a solonoid tick or something. Come to find out that because I was just testing things, I never connected the plug for the dimmer back in. After it was 3 a.m. and i had to wake up at 6 to get ready for work, I said I'll put everything back together and figure it out later. Once I plugged the dimmer connector back on the dimmer knob, everything is working A O.K. now. I love them. Just can't wait till it gets dark again so I can see them. Cuz you know everytime I passed thru a tunnel or in a underground parking lot, the lights had to come on https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif Hope that this might help someone if you would experience the same problem.

I installed the procar guages last night..

They are a simple install.. and hey are BRIGHT.. but the control allows you to select the color and the level of brightness. (5 different for each)
I like the blue.. but I cleared my needles and put in blue bulbs.. lol so I can barely see them... so I'll be painting them red or putting my white bulbs back in today..

Also on the 2002 it sucks that the High Beam/cuise fog light indicators are still the blue/green color of the stock one piece guage.. blah!

No this isn't my first mod. But it is the first time I ever did anything as far as taking the insturment cluster out. Easier than I thought!!!I'm new to this site so I still gotta read about how to post pictures. I have a Bergundy 2k ES Galant. First mod was tinting the windows with the silver tint. Came out looking very nice and I get plenty of compliments for it. Then I hooked up the sound system. I have the Sony (M550 I believe) the one with the automatic flip down face with the controls on the backside. The face lights the indiglo blue so it goes great with the gauges. Then I put the Belagio chrome 18" rims on it. A Nokia handsfree system with a private headset mounted next to the shifter. K&N Air Filter.A muffler (I forget the brand, but I remember it was a good one :? ). And finally the gauges. I've said this before but I'll say it again. I want to keep the car luxury looking rather than sport. The muffler I like for it's performance but not the sound. It has a real deep throaty sound and makes it sound like a V6, but still don't like the sound while I'm trying to keep it luxury. Been thinking about a CAI or a short air ram. Once I learn how to post pics I will have them on.

HMmm, all the gauges looks cool but one thing.........I've noticed none of your gauge's needles lightup...........Looks like you could hardly see it...Stock needles atleast lights up. Maybe because its not using any of the bulbs in the back anymore......
