Update Dec. 20, 2007
I am still not feeling to hot after my surgery so I have been taking it slow. I started receiving all the parts in the mail yesterday. I got my new ext. wheel studs / lugs / and clutch in for the wrx. I got the steering wheel/ exhaust / and gauge cluster in for the hatch. I finally got the whole Tach taken out and all wires traced back to origin. I had the wife stop by the parts store and pick me up some fresh bulbs to put in it. I copied the Honda-tech thread on how to make your SI gauge cluster look similar in lighting as the JDM orange cluster. I went to the shop and grabbed some spray paint. I did not bother to read the side of the can I just looked at the top. I thought it was orange and it ended up being red. Oh well.. instead of an orange glow I have a dark red glow. I am not going to spend $20 more bucks on new bulbs. **** it. I got it installed late last night and it looks awesome and all the gauges work properly. I will update with pics asap. I re-installed all the dash pieces. All I have left to do now is wait for the glovebox and such to come in. I already started disassembly on the steering wheel. I will finish that up sometime this week and get the new wheel installed. The only reason I am taking the old black wheel off is because the material is coming loose on the bottom. Oh well.. other than that I will check in later!
