Black Gauges

Post by SlvrACR » Fri Dec 22, 2006 6:17 pm

I was wondering if there is any neon or aftermarket part that will replace my stock white face gauges wit black or dark grey. I need it to still have a tach but I dont like the White face look.

kinda funny, i saw a neon on cardomain with the stock black cluster but it had the tach on it, it was an 01. I thought it was a cheap version of the normal white face one. Let me see if i find it

Don't the Canadian and European models also have the black face gauges with chrome rings? Those ones are nice...

They do look nice (the black ones with the tach and chrome rings) but I still like the white-faced guages

hahaha, found these on the very first page of the Interior section in this forum surprisingly enough...though they aren't the black face you want, you can add the chrome rings...

2000-2002 Canadian neons all have black guages, regardless if they have a tach or not.

The LX and R/T models came with the chrome bezels.

alright, well I was just offering up another option, because you can get black faced guages, with several different fonts, and a couple of different options for what color the numbers/tics light up

Damn dude I've been wanting to do the same thing to my car ever since I got it. Looks like it's kilometers if you want the black.

I just want black face MPH gauges. Do the export speedos have mph written in small letters like the domestic gauges do with kmh?

I totally agree...those foreign gauges look SOOO hott! I looked at my co-worker's gauges in her '04 Kia Spectra, and I told her I loved her gauges (looked a lot like those)! Kinda have an "old-school" look to 'em!

If you had black, you'd want white. One is never satisfied. Don't you know, white guages add +5 whp.

If your looking, the sport model and the LX model canadian cars had the Black face with tach. The solid black guage with tach is Rare, and I mean Rare...

Most of the guages that I have seen and worked on are the Black with chrome lip or white face if the have a tach.

I have a cluster with out the tach kicking around here some where. I just got the chrome one for my dad's base LE and did the Led swap in it. The black with the blue looks killer.

I would hop onto NeonCanada.com and surf around there some. I know a lot of the guy's up here want american guages. I know I would trade my white faced w. tach for an american set!

G'luck finding one
