Has anyone bought these for the 02-05 Cavaliers?
I bought one but have not installed it yet. I saw someone with this in the car and I swear it does not look like it lines up right at all. And not because he installed it wrong. The circles around the speedo, etc are NOT shaped like the actual guages and the turn signal indicator holes seem completely unaligned.
Do a lot of companies make this or main Fire & Ice Motorsports? I am NOT taking my whole dash apart for this...
If there is a consensus that this item does not work, I will take it upon myself to redesign it the right way. They claim to have a copyright on it, but its not stealing if you take a bad product and make it into an accurate one.
Any notes on these would be greatly appreciated.
it does! make sure you install it straight and you'll be fine....also make sure its the right one!!!!

It lines up pretty good if you ask me. I've got another bezel there with it and they don't line up exactly but it's still pretty daggone good. Here ya go:
I'm sorry - I just don't like the way they poke out from behind the turn signal holes or the way that the temp guage appears distorted. Maybe I am just being too picky.
I am not saying your car looks bad, because it does not. I just think the layout is slightly off. When my speedhut guages come, I will take care of that problem - I'll scan them and redesign it a little. Should be an easy matter to rout them from a variety of materials and colors.
the one in that pic is way off....the temp radius is totally wrong, as well as the speedo is shifted to the right.
nice gauge set up cannon
i have the same as crystal mine fits a litter better than hers
Here is a pic of mine from my Sunfire that I painted recently:
Hard to tell in this picture, but mine lines up perfectly. The only thing that bothers me about it is the little fuel filler indicator is cut off towards the bottom. I don't mean the gauge itself, only the little white symbol.

Eazy, I got it off of ebay, also. I'll try to find the guys name in my ebay history for you.
i should say, the aluminum one, not the cf
if anyones interested
you can get the cf piece at procarparts.com but search for like 00+. It should be on there. And when u install it make sure that you try to get it right the first couple of times because if u keep messing with it the double sided tape on the back wont stick anymore.
