I've looked into those before. They are kinda like a big sticker that goes over the existing dash by removing the "needles".

I also fixed your link...

first of all, the dont work with SSEi'* cuz there is no boost gauge...

they seem to be pretty easy to install...i think only 1 person here had it...

you need to take the piece out from under the steering column...and then the 2 bolts that hold up the column... drop it about 2 inches so the dash can come out

remove the stereo trim, just prey it offf... then remove the upper trim piece that has the cigarette lighter and headlight switch...

all thats left is the 6-7 screws of the cluster, and then wiggle it out, and disconnected the 2 terminals...

once you have the cluster out, remove the screws to the clear panel side of the cluster, take off the needles, just pull, and then put your blue gauges in there...

not sure how they are wired, but ull figure it out...

I was gonna add a PS to my post

Before giving them ANY money, get a picture of what they are going to send you. Not all the 92-00 dashes are the same. Differences between years and models will be a killer if they send the wrong one

a ton of things are different like the warning lights are where the compass on my car would be and lots of the holes would not line up so study your dash layout before just ordering these because there is a large chance that it could end up not fitting.
