    BTW, what are the specs on your truck? year? V6 or I4? 4x/prerunner or mini?

    looking at your cluster, your gears go from D directly to 3. havent noticed that before, all the ones i have seen for the V6s go from D to 4, etc...

    they just pull off, they take a bit of pressure but you shouldnt break them if you get under them and pry them up by the center black piece.

    i used two fingers and got my nails slightly under the base of the needle on opposite sides. then just pull up and they will come off, i did it multiple times and didn't break anything.

    Wife rolled it 3x mod...
    I have done this mod about 3 times now and I have been 100% successful every time. i Have Blue back ground (14 LED's) And white every where else that i would have thought have look good, (about 8) if in the PHX area i can do this for you. Takes about 2 hours in person to remove and reinstall, or you can ship it to me. takes about 1 week to order the LED's.

    ^ right...i didnt want to say anything, but i personally wouldnt trust a guy that takes 5 hours to do a cluster only. this is why i asked to confirm! shoot, i can have people drive up to drive off in about an hour, and this usually includes changing the needle colors, which take more time than changing the actual LEDS!!

    Sorry to bring back an old thread, but can you sand off the red and repaint a different color on the rpm and temp gauges?

    Dash looks sick Dub! Did you take the light out of the hazard button and put some leds under the clock to light the climate controls? You can't see any of the amber on the CC that no one can seem to get rid of.
