I have no lights for my RPM, Speed, and Temp guages. The back lights seem dim and the needles are unlit. Is this something I can fix myself or am I going to need to disassemble the whole dash and have it serviced?

You could, but you might as well just pull it, send it in to Lextech. have all the lights done at the same time. While its there you might as well spring for some badass needles.

lotz of money tho
I expect my cluster back tomorrow

ok, thanks for that but for someone that wants to do the repair over a weekend so I can drive to work on Monday.. Is this something I can repair myself by reaching up inside dash or am I looking at a full dis-assembly?

How long was the turnaround time anyway? I'm gonna be sending my cluster and AC unit pretty soon.Originally Posted by Ted_Se7en

i'd say a good 3-4 days for them to receive, tinker with it and ship it out
i sent mine about a lmonth ago, but i did use super slow ground delivery

You have to pull the cluster out, disconnect all the plugs. Then you can go from there. Not sure where to get the bulbs. But I suppose you can pull and match.Originally Posted by MuGGzyx

Yeah, well I was planning on just overnighting it to them, and wasn't sure what the turnaround time was if you expedited shipping as fast as possible to and from them.

Read the Lextech FAQ page...really read it. Know all the ins and outs before you send everything. Originally Posted by TTSC3

My bosses ES gauges were sent and done in under two weeks. Slapped it back in the car. Little fine tuning, perfecto. Blue with Yellow needles....looks awesome.

I've simply GOT to do this with my ES300. Just lost another bulb on the tach and am TIRED of having no gas needle. Sounds like the ES options are far fewer than the options with my SC though. I'm shocked to hear an ES got anything other than stock colors.

Sent it from California on Monday March 24th (Express), they received it Tuesday March 25th, Fedex tracking shows that it should be in my hands, tomorrow, Tuesday April the 8th.Originally Posted by TTSC3

Feels like an eternity to me

I guess you could ask them (paying the extra) for an Express resend (I should have done that btw).
