Nice work BBFanz!

I was just thinking of this very modification the other day. I had done it to a 1996 Civic, and a 1997 CR-V before and it looked awesome against Honda's blue gauge lighting.

Q. How does it look at night with the orange illumination?

At night it look no different than before. Our dash light are not very bright to a point that it illuminate the whole guage area.

Looks graet. How hard is it to get apart and back together?

That's awesome. the gauge cluster just pops off. you have to work it out a little but its not too bad

The cluster guage itself is easy to take off. The problem is the clear lense is glued to the guage frame from the factory and have to be seperated. It's not hard but you have to be patient so you don't break anything. They don't sell the lense by itself. It took longer to seperate the lense from the housing than it did to mask off and paint.:D
