there r 2 screws new the guage that sit on the top part of the guage take those screws out
once u removed that black thing. there will b 3 more screws
one the top adn one on each side
after that pull the cluster out. once u have disconnected the harness tehre are 3 more screws u need 2 take out from undernearth the cluster. these screws hold that black brezel n. once u get all those screws out u can install the guages and put all the screws back n. 4 the pwr, i would tap off the dimmer switch on the righthand side of the steering wheel. cut the red and black wire and use butt connectors to give u a good connection. after taht test it out and ur good 2 go. oh ya, find a good ground. u could take that panel off from under the steering wheel and use 1 of those screws 4 a ground. when i mean panel i mean that plastic panel

this how 2 is kinda sloppy, by order. doesnt look professional. but hey im tired

1st. Remove the screws under the dash gauge area, you'll have to lower your steering wheel all the way down. Then after that you can remove teh screws from the underside. You then should be able to just pull it out...GENTLY...

2nd. Remove the 3 screws holding in the guage cluster, I belive there is one on top and one to each side of the cluster.

3rd. Don't quite pull out the whole clustor yet, becuase it has a wire harness on the back of it. Pull that out gently and then unplug that, make sure you don't rip any wires out. There also on my car was a little zip tie thing I had to cut. After that just remove the whole thing out.

Warning!! After this step I haven't actually done, just watch people do and reading..

4th. The plastic part should snap off, but be careful not to hit anything or break anything.

5th. There is a couple of screws in which the black part of the cluster is held in by, remove these before removing the black part.

6th. Now get your indiglo guages prepped and set. Since you have already installed some of these you know how to slide them in and not hit the needles so that they will uncalibrate. Double sided tape or glue...whichever you choose to use.

7th. Get the wires and wire it up according to the dimmer, power, and so on. You should already know this part. Red/Black wire is the 12V for parkign lights and dimmer. Black is duh ground. Reverse steps then you're good to go.

Oh yeah may sound like a common sense thing, but test it all out before you put it all back together.

Good luck,
Jason

I don't think you have to worry about "uncalibrating" any of the gauges except the gas gauge, all the other gauges go back to where they are. A good way to do it (that I should have done) is to fill up all the way just before you install the gauges, that way you can just set the fuel gauge to all the way full.
