    i did some research and found that most people think the dolphin guage brand is a good brand, so i took a chance and will be installing these

    as soon as the ebay guys send them to me.
    i got them for under 200 so if they suck ................ well ............. that would still suck. people seem to like them though.
    aaah well. i will post when i have them in.

    I like the design but cant help but think Marine when I see those. What a strange brand name for car parts??? Maybe its just my warped view. LOL.

    yea, i know. still, moon eyes sounds normal now because we have heard it for so long but you got to admit - moon eyes is a goofy name. maybe we will someday say "you have dolphin gauges!!!! man i wish i had that kind of high quality stuff!"
    or not
    we will soon see

    gauges

    hi, how do you perform a change of gauges? do you have to rewire all? or just adapt it to the existing wiring harness?
    i want to change my cluster but i'm afraid i don't know how!
    i'm liking the stewart wagner, vdo, stack, or autometer american muscle series, it's an upgrade i'm dying to do:victory:
