If I pick up a set of OEM painted gauge faces, are they easy to swap in or is it a total PITA? Anyone tried this?

LOL- it's an "effort-to-reward" ratio.. If it's a huge PITA, i'm not going to mess with it.

no I have not bought them yet- was thinking about it... white or matching sand beige would look nicer than the standard black.

A friend of mine did it in under 30 minutes. Cluster removal is fairly easy, as well as removing the cluster faceplate. I can ask him for some tips if you like.
that would be awesome- thanks. Most concerned about how to crack open the housing and proper removal of the needles.
What do you think- Sand beige to match the interior, or white?

I have not installed them personally, they came as a dealer installed option on my car. However the sand beige is a nice (if unnecessary) touch. I think that it looks pretty good with the interior. It doesn't jump out like the red face does, but is a little more subtle.

Thanks- would you mind posting a pic?

I assume the install is similar with 996, I've done mine in 30min.
Super- any info you can share for removing the needles / cracking open the housing?

s4r- Thanks for the pic, it's still a tough choice! The matching sand beige gives a nice integrated look, and the white gives a more classic sporty look.
