lol...if i make them for people...anyone interesed? i basically made a transparent colored plastic gauge for the backside of the speedo. So..its not going to burn off etc. I could probably reproduce a bunch of them in different colors. there were a couple secret tips...its not like you can just take it and cut a piece out. thickness, cutout points and how it layed flat were a few factors. Also...everyone that was having problems taking the cluster out because of the one plastic screw...just pull harder...it pops out and then replacement is easy

Does the screw break when you pull harder on it?

I'm guessing you erased your other post Lip?

He already said he was using the plastic colored tabs from notebook dividers -

That looks really good bro...I hate the mismatched color the Xb has. I would be interested in what you did if it is fact a reversible procedure. Hit me up if I can send you a few bucks to fab me up one of those babies!
