Does anyone know of a place to get gauge overlays for the 2003 Xterra? The gauges are recessed in a lot and have a black background. When I wear sunglasses (often in CA), I cannot see the gauges. I'm not opposed to custom made ones, I just want to be able to tell my speed on sunny days.

Thanks!

Keep your eyes on eBay. You're not alone as most of us have that seeing problem. All I've seen so far is the indiglo gauges like this:

I think most of us are waiting for the rev-glo where it's white gauges, but not inglo at night, just reverse colors. They have those available for the '00/'01's, but not the '02/'03's yet.

If the dashes are the same on the X and Frontier (I think they are) there is a group buy underway (need 10) to get them into production. Here is the thead on TUNFS... Reverse Indiglo Group Buy

Ag Bullet,

Thanks for the link, I just bought in. It still says 4 of 10 to buy, but I did just sign up. The reverse indiglos look a lot better than the normal ones. That was exactly what I was looking for. I hope to get the faces soon.

Thanks so much!

If it's these, I'm definitely interested. I have a 2000 though.

Can you keep us updated, Ag?

TatsuoX,

Indiglo Gauge Faces

Actually it is the REVERSE indiglo that needs a buy-in to be made and only for the 2002-2003. The one that you show above is already made for the 2000-2003 and you can buy it on their site.

Thanks DNA..

I think I'm in too! I'll post everything else related to this at the other site.

OK, I'm in, but I can't post on that other board yet. I think I have to wait for some sort of approval.

Hey Ag Bullet, do you know if we can get a group buy for the AC/heater conrols too? That way the entire dash would match up and look pretty sweet. I'm trying to post this over at TUNFS...

I wonder if they'll come out with the reverse glo gauges and not the indiglo where they're white during the day, but like this at night:

i would love to have those.. white in day colored at night

Todrick, I've seen them listed for the '00/'01 models, like yours, but not the '02/'03 like mine.

That's exactly what they're trying to have made. They only need 10 buyers (4 so far) at like $69. if you go to the manufacterers website, there is a list of potential new products. They only need 6 more people to get the reverse indiglo (white during the day, red/blue numbers at night). I wrote the company to see if they can make a matching AC/heater control panel.

Here's the page where to "buy in" if intersted. http://www.streetracerparts.com/reverse_style.htm

I just got word back from them. They are already doing the AC panel for the frontier, so the Xterra should be the same, right? That's what I told them at least... They're right here in town, so I volunteered for test-fitting etc. No word back about that though.

I would assume that they would set up something similar for the AC controls. As for joining TUNFS make sure you have your e-mail listed or PMs on and one of the other Admins will approve your membership.

We are now up to 8/10 buyers for the reverse indiglo (the one that NismoXse02 shows)2002-2003 version!

rockout77-- I tried to post on the board too, it took a while to confirm my account and then I couldn't post because I'm not part of the club or something. I just hope they are watching the numbers go up.

The only one I see denied is RIxterra. You have to go into your profile and publish your e-mail or turn the private messaging on to join.

Rockout is accepted so he/she can post. DNAGRl, not sure what SN you are using, but the SN you use here isn't in our directory...

It really isn't a big deal but 2 more total is sweet, hopefully others will join up soon!

I pre-ordered one for my X yesterday....

Does anyone actually know how difficult installation is going to be for these? I heard one guy say that his TEMP gauge doesn't work anymore, and the install was a pain in the ass.

I am gonna pay a mechanic to put it in. Yeah, it's $70 for the face and probably $200 in labor, but that will still be cheaper than the speeding ticket I'm going to get from not being able to see the gauge.

From what I gathered on the Frontier Forum, it looks like enough people have bought in! It hasn't been reflected on the site yet though. So I guess you guys are on your way!

wow this is what ive been looking for. i am going to jump on this great deal as soon as i can manage to get 100.00.. by the way, what is the "UPGRADE TO A DIGITAL INVERTER with Touch-pad?" cuz it sounds neat so i decided to get it

Killer,

From their website:

This is a Six-Color Changing Inverter with a digital Touch Pad. It is an upgrade from the standard Two-Color Inverter which we normally supply. It will let you choose between several shades of Blue and Green, copared to the Two-Color Inveter which limits you to one shade of Either of the colors. The Digital touch-pad also has a built in Dimming control which enables you to set the level of brightness.

Would ya'll who bought in be so kind to post some pictures when you get them? Thanks!

are these going to be hard to put in? im a complete newbie..
