those are just overlays... Like you put them over ur stock gauge plates.

The ones LEDMOD had were not overlays. They replaced the gauge plates because they were better quality. I cant find any other good quality place >.<

i have experience with both companies. the LEDMod ones are exactly what the page says: OEM quality

the customxbgauges are printed on low quality paper with low quality ink. if you overlay that over the stock it wont light up properly. if you use just the plate light will bleed everywhere and look bad.

pay the money and get the LEDMod one please!

$150 is for gauge face is pretty expensive IMO. How clear are the numbers on the gauges because from the close up pics they don't look smooth.

I think he may be right though. You can get to the xB section if go their directly, but if you go from their home page and click on Scion there are only tC parts listed.

Maybe they just don't link it anymore. Somebody should give them a call and make sure.

The one I got was the Stock Guage face, only difference is, it's white instead of orange. So if you've done a Blue LED swap, it comes through Bright Blue as soon as you start your car or turn your lights on. Instead of a fugly cross of whatever LED color you're using, and the OEM/stock orange guage face.

And YES the quality is OEM. Not like a paper overlay.
