Copy and paste, its so easy a caveman can do it






I used to like them, but now I dont think I'm diggin it. And $300 is best spent somewhere else.

What the hell is that on your shifter?

hey bigred your sig says you have custom black interior, can you post some pics?

but yeah with $300i would have bought a front end replacement or some tow mirrors before a bought a gauge cluster.

but to each his own you know, and it does actually look pretty good. do they offer additional/different gauge options? does it have your correct millage?
