You gotta explain a little more than that. Is the cluster in the car? What kinda of Car are they in? And last but not least, WHY do you want to put white face gauges in your car. I'm assuming they light up right?

Read my sig. I had personal experience with some pretty nice AC Autotechnic ones. The guy told me they were brand new and were one of the best sets you could buy. After about a year and half to two years they shorted out and just stopped working. My advice would be to stay away from them, not all because of the looks but I don't know of anyone now that makes a good quality white face gauge set. But to answer your question, they should just lay over, most involve double stick tape, but whatever you do don't remove the needles, its ok to move them to get them to slide on but don't remove them...just my .02

I've done an Integra install, though it's been a few years. I've also installed some reverse-indiglos in my Civic. I'll say that the Civic install is a lot cleaner. The Integra dash somehow "sandwitches' the gauge face and cluster together. If the wire terminals are any more than 1mm thick, you'll be doing some custom-cutting to clear the terminals and make everything look good. This is definitely not a novice-level install as it would be on a Civic.

[Rant]
I agree that there are few good-quality indiglo overlays out there. I bought mine about three years ago and I'm starting to see some long crease/bubbles grow from where the screw holes are. These look like window tint that has begun to bubble after years in the hot sun. This could be because my car sits in the SC sun daily and I don't drive it that often. The brand I have is "Lite Glow" or something off of eBay.
