Gauge face change. cheap and easy mod, and looks nicer.
This was one of the first mods I ever did, like 10 years ago.
went with white faces back then, I just changed them over to silver faces, and shot some pics.
I Borrowed these pictures of the cluster removal from TXCobra:
Start with your untouched gauge cluster.
Remove the two T-15 Torx head screws.
Step 2
STOCK HEADLIGHT KNOB
"You need to pull a retainer clip outwards (away from the shaft) and then pull this knob off gently." - MustangWorld.com
Aftermarket Headlight Knob
Remove the 2 mm Allen/Hex screw in the side of your Headlight Knob Switch
Step 3
Once you have the knob taken care of, carefully remove the gauge clusters bezel (clusters surrounding piece). It will be stubborn more than likely but it should come out, just try not to break it! After the bezel is out, unscrew the four surrounding bolts to remove the cluster itself. They are again T-15 Torx headed bolts.
Step 4
Tilt the cluster by bringing the bottom out first. (like you would be putting the gauge faces pointing upwards)
Step 4.1
Remove the black connector that is connected into the back of the cluster. Carefully pull it straight back and out.
Step 4.2
Notice the white connector on the opposite end of the gauge cluster. Just like the black connector, remove the white connector the same way. Carefully pull straight back and out.
