Orange Glo Guages

[Kenny2g]

Just got my Orange Glo Guage put on today. Men does that thing look sweet at night. I would strongly urge you guys to check that thing out. However, it wasn't an easy install. I spent almost 3 and half hours installing it. However it was 2000% worth it.

I just got the thing put on 3 hrs ago. I promise to have the pic tomorrow. I don't have a dig cam. My girlfriend does though. However i just broke up with her 3days ago and she might bitch me out for wanting to borrow it. But i do what i can for real.

hmm, last i checked my guages would glow orange. Perhapse I'm color blind

Is the orange glo added on top of the gauges or did you replace the whole gauge? I was originaly looking at getting new white gauges. Is it something I can add to those or are they complete replacements? How do they look during the day? Also how mutch did they set you back? Man I can ask a lot of questions

They just go on top of the black ones you already have. You can't take the black ones out because you'll need it for you side signals. But they look white during the day because your headlight is not turned on. Then when your headlight is on, they look Orange. I would recomend you to get orange since E36 dash is red.

I just bought some orange gauge faces. Any advice on installing them in '94 325i?

Hey Kenny2G, where did you get the new white face gauge and how much did it cost? It sounds sweet.

I got my gauges at www.procarparts.com for around $40.00 including shipping. Now if I could only get my hands on some installation instructions.....

TCGray. I got mine on EBAY. That thing was just a total dister. It always stuck on my pins and i never knew what speed i was at. I just ended up taking it off. Mine was only $25. Believe me, it looked good when it worked and terriable when it didn't.
my 2cents thoughts.

 

[bmcmacken]

Is it necessary to remove the steering wheel to install the gauges in a '94 325i. It does not have tilt steering. It looks like I may have to resort to professional installation if I can't get any help here.

pics or it didn't happen!

 

[Kenny2g]

you don't have to remove the steering wheel, however, you have to loosen the two bolts underneat the steering wheel for it to tilt down further. Believe me, i had to do this about 4 times, it's not fun and like i said, that this isn't worth the headece.
