    guage bezel overlay...

    anyone know if anyone makes an overlay for inside the gauge cluster...

    I saw this one company makes these billet overlays, and they look sweet, but they don't offer them for the Galant...

    I'm really interested in a carbon fiber one, i just do not like that blue background inside there, and i will NOT replace the guages themselves... I just want an overlay to cover the blue...

    Yeah I have a 2002, I got the GDI Gauges and the gauge bezel to cover the blue. i though the blue was nasty also.



    The only blue left is where the turn signals are thats it.

    Yeah Tiller,

    I just put a 2001 Bezel in to cover the nasty blue (probably paint it someday)and replaced the instrument panel bulbs to blue..

    Do you know for a fact that you can just order the bezel? No junk yards around me have an 8g and I Don Herring said that they didn't have a part number just for the bezel. And, of course, if anyone has one sitting around or know where they can get one close by, let me know, I'll buy it. I am dissapointed that the '02 GTZ didn't come with the white faces.

    Gizmo and ChromeGalant, did you have any problems securing the bezel or was it a clean fit?

    sorry about that, i know y the junkyards around u don't have them, i been raiding junk yards within a 200 mile radius looking for galants. and yea i have the only gauge bezel that all of em had. i'll try to look up the part number on it when i go home this weekend.

    uhm i don't know what the dealer charges but oem-car-parts.com has it for like 36 dollars. might me an option if you can't find a place that has it

    Found it! Thanks Alan.

    I just called my local dealer and he quoted me a price of $170. I am really hoping that he was looking up the wrong part. FYI, Everytime I have called Stohlman Mitsu in Tysons, VA for price info they have had ridiculously inflated prices.

    you might want to try delraymitsubishi since they give us a 25% discount. if you are looking for some place local, you might want to try rockville mitsubishi, i believe our chapter gets a small discount there i recall, maybe

    but yea 170, thats the wrong part haha. i can't see paying more than 50 dollars for that part at the dealer.

    I had no problems with it it just snapped in. On the 2002 there is a screw that screws the bezel to the gauge housing, but on the 2001 there isn't one. No biggie didn't need it.

    If you want a bezel go to www.oem-car-parts.com they have them there for like $35 shipped.

    What did you do to clear the needles? Does it require pulling them out of the bezel?

    hell yeah, that's what i need... you got that part at the dealer...? do you happen to know the part number...?

    And how hard was the install on that...? How do you secure it...?

    BTW, i saw your drop in your profile, but it got closed... looks 10x better man... i think the reason it still looks high is the 35 rubber... go with 40 on your next set... looks good man...!
