Something like that, and no you don't need to buy extra bulbs.
Check out eBay for better pricing and model.

Just check them out and happy bidding.

yea the guages that your link is for are the ones that are totally blue at night or green. On those guages you can adjust the color. It says they are 6 different colors but what it really is is just lighter and darker tones of green and blue. And no you don't have to buy the bulbs separately, in fact these guages go right over your stock ones.

There's also the first generation type of reverse indiglo's that are on sale on ebay, the onew where just then numbers and lines on the face of the gauge light up. I think they look better than the newer ones that are out where the middle part lights up. If you want to find them on ebay you have to do a search for "solora" gauges, not "solara".

are these hard to install yourself?

by **alext14** » Tue Apr 29, 2003 7:12 pm

No they are pretty easy, they go over the stock ones and plug into the same outlets as the stock ones. There is a thread on here somewhere about the instalation process. All you have to do is to take out the whole console with the stock guages.

actually all of the aftermarket gauges aren't plug and play installation. they have a harness, but you need to 'tap' your parking lights in the back of your instrument panel and find a good ground for the other wire. i'll try and back track to the step-by-step install post....

i believe u tap into a green wire on the far right side of the instrument cluster. maybe it was brown......i can't remember. it is definitely the far right wire though.

Reminder, you are doing something terribly wrong if you have to remove the needles to get the guage faces on.

correct. make sure you unplug the 3 connectors at the back of your gauge cluster to avoid confusion. the new gauges slip right over.

damn spiked mantis.. beat me to it. that's the one!
