Author Topic: Paging Bob (blkragss) and Steve H Hookerf14 2nd Gear Member # 1602 posted                    Guys, Need your help. I just got my 200mph guage cluster. There is a lot of discussion about the TA bezel, Macewen bulbs, and new foam for the steering column. My original cluster is still in the car with 400 miles. The 200mph cluster core came from a wrecked 2001 Z28. It was returned to me with a crack in the lense and numerous scratches. Q1. Does the Ta bezel fit between the cluster and the lense assembly? Q2. With the white face, do I need the special bulbs? Q3. If so, where do I get them? Q4. Anyone have or know how to get a nice lense assembly? Thanks in advance for your help.

It is very easy to install, I used the instructions on http://www.blackcamaro.com A2&3: You don't need special bulbs, but I replaced mine while I had it apart with Macewen clear Xenon bulbs makes them alot easier to read at dawn and dusk http://members.aol.com/rmacewen1/index.html or http://www.macewenmotorsports.com/xe12-5-2.html You can use this site for a guide on bulb installation http://www.freewebs.com/philsz28/whitefacegaugebulbinst.htm A4. SSTeri9672 ( Teri Lane) is where I got my T/A Bezel from and she is great to deal with and very fast in getting your order to you SSteri9672@houston.rr.com Good luck and any other help you need on install or pics shoot me an email at blkss02@comcast.net Hope to see you soon at the next event -------------------- SLP OEM air-lid (painted) with Donaldson filter and CAI, GMMG Chambered exhaust,GMS 200 MPH white gauges,3.73 Rear Axle, SS grille with silver logo, 5-Spoke ZR-1 Chrome Plated Wheels, SS Front Floor Mats, Commemorative Portfolio, Custom FRC's, D Goetz signature series SFC's and STB, Gentex Mirror, Power antenna,T/A shifter handle,clear corners, 160 Therm., HPP3 and Silver SS emblems with 345 hp decals painted calipers with Camaro decal car # 10252 41U Onyx Black -1 of 174 A4 verts http://community.webshots.com/user/blkragss02 EMCC member #318 http://www.emcamaro.org/ Posts: 1118 | From: Southgate, MI | Registered: Jan 2003  |  IP: Logged Hookerf14 2nd Gear Member # 1602 posted                    Bob, Thanks for the help. So if I understand this. The Bezel IS the lense? The bezel that Teri sells, is that the same as listed on the Macewan web site? I don't unerstand why the ICONs vanish when using the TA bezel. Doesn't it just "frame out" the area with the instrumentation? -------------------- 02 SS vert 35th LE #2790 of 3369, M6 SLP 345HP CME, 97 SS vert 30th Annv. M6 stock, 96 Z28 vert.
