The gauges I got off of eBay, and to be honest they don't line up 100% and stick up a bit and have caused some problems with the gauges running smoothly..essentially if you go the route I went I'd say get double sided tape (which I'm looking for) to make sure they sit relatively flush against the old gauges...otherwise I mostly love them.

The gauge + needle contact is a problem I haven't heard come up in a few years. Back (a long ways back) when the K.O.R.E gauges were new and exciting, some people had contact problems with them too - as they were quite thick. The easy fix is to slightly pull the needle assembly (like you were going to take it off) out some - so it doesn't make contact.

Looks good. My gauge needles stick every so often as well. Part of the problem is that they aren't 100% lined up because I didn't put them in correctly the second time. You should be able to slightly move them to one side if that's the case.

If you take off the stock black gauges, the overlays will look alot better.

And where did you get those fogs from? Fog angel eyes?

I got the fogs off ebay from a company called bling lights...which has their own site and their own shop on said site... I was going to go in to try to fix my dash today. So you're saying to take off the stock blacks, I'll give it a shot.

How well did the fogs mount up?

We used the mounts that it came with and attached the screws through the plastic of the fog holes. They've been holding decently so far, but I'm not sure if they're 100% good. The size keeps it relatively stuffed anyway.

I just got the Ark Speed Racing short billet antenna today, I'm amazed at how much shorter it is than the stock, for some reason I pictured it taller. But since I hate seeing the antenna there, I like it.
