Looking GOOD Hec! I had a friend up the street pull my glass out(it was alot easier to get to the dash that way) and use high temp epoxy and @ 10 black screws in the plastic vent to hold it down. He put the screws into the metal support frame under the dash so it shouldn't be going anywhere soon. They're pretty flush so it doesn't look all ghetto and mess.
Speaking of your SVT guages since they're 160 and regulars are 130 doesn't that mess your speedo up bad or did you have it calibrated on dyno or something?

Thanks.
I did the whole cluster....not just the face. The speed is pretty accurate....maybe 1 mph off.

not only does the recall not cover it, the extended warranty doesn't either.

Wow, that looks awesome. I really need to do this, as my dash warp seemed to get a lot worse the last couple of weeks with these 110 degree heat indexes.
