    Good luck. I found one on eBay for about $85. It is all plug and play. Odometer will read what the donor pickup had.

    Might be tricky. Probably some way to do that with your current gauge cluster. They are not easy to open.

    Well its not that bad i heared that there are kinda like a vinle sticker that goes on top of your black gauges but i don't like them because i dont think that the light would travel through then well

    Yes. You could do that. Maybe upgrade the lights in the panel as well. I've seen some write-ups on that here.

    Yea, but I don't really like the idea because you have to be really precise on where you put the sticker and how you put on the sticker. Because if you put it wrong it all goes to shit and you have to remove it which is very very comlpicated.

    I wouldn't do it. That's why I just swapped in an 02 gauge cluster into my 98. Piece of cake.

    Yea your right, but im kinda in a budget here. Thats kind of the point of my Toyota Tacoma built I want it clean and nice but I also want to do it in the cheapest way. I only spent alot of money with the headlights, grill, rims, tires, tint, and soon a lift kit

    Don't worry. You'll spend lots of money on your older Tacoma. It's natural. Just do it! Lol. I don't think about how much I've spent on mine. It's a hobby lol

    Yea but im currently in highschool (jr year) and I got lots of stuff to deal with and not a full time job or a part time. And and I don't really like borrowing money for my parents are friends so I just usually save up what I got and its works well but not efficently. But it's really hard to be really into off-roading and trucks if you don't have enough money.

    This thread is racist


    Black gauges matter

    Don’t believe the hype. White isn’t right
