GRT,
I got a white face guage kit for my 97 from NR a few months back.Be careful, they are a bunch of jerks.I paid extra for next day delivery and they went and required a signature for delivery! Of course I work for a living so I wasn't home.I had to drive all the way across town the next day to the UPS warehouse to get my part! what a waste of money! When I emailed them about it they said it's their policy and they wouldn't refund the extra I paid for next day air!!!
It's an OK part,very expensive tho, just make sure you use superglue around the needle holes or you'll have fuzzy little halo's around the needles when the lights are on.I believe that they make a kit now that is split and does not require you to remove your needles.This is a MAJOR pain!!! I don't care what they tell you, you will never be able to get them back on at all accurately! Check ebay,they sell a lot of WFG kits on there.
Good Luck!

I'm interested in some white face gauges as well for my 2001 DAK.

What is the URL for NR's web site?

Any other vendor out there selling 2001 white face qauges? (looking for some numbers for the oil and temp gauges, don't need no stinking lines)

Thanks in advance

APC makes a really good kit.Yes,at first it is a bit of a hassle because placing the needles back in place can be a pain.They are very informative and plus you get two different colors which are green and a bright blue,looks really cool!!Also about the needle placement,it is a good idea to draw a diagram of where your needles are when the truck is started then once you place them just look at the pic.

As far as getting the needles back on, make sure your truck is completely warmed up before you take a picture, or make a drawing or whatever, I used a digital camera.When you get ready to put the needles back on, again make sure the truck is completely warmed up.
Good Luck!
