Lariet Gauges in XLT

Anyone swap in the nicer Lariet gauges into an XLT?

Can the message center be swapped in too?

Did you ever get a Lariat cluster? I have one in mine and am finishing up the harness for the message center. I've also got the stainless faces coming for it. Good luck!

Did you buy the Lariat panel in the picture above to hold the message center buttons? If so, where did you get it? I have one in beige, but need one in black. Do you know a good place to buy this panel? I also like the stainless look... did you buy US Speedo brand?

No, I did not buy the panel. I'm going to modify mine. I've never seen a lariat one XLT grey, so it's easier to cut the hole, then buy one, paint it (which I do for a living) etc.... And yes, I have the US Speedo kit, just installed tonite and I must say it looks soooooo sweet!

Good to hear about the US Speedo kit, I want to have that before I install all this stuff too.

I need a black one, but I got the beige on I posted cheap and planned on painting it but I don't think the leather eyebrow w/ stitching would come out very good.

You may be suprised, there are some sweet interior paint/dyes these days that look very good. I work at a BMW dealership in Farmington Hill, MI, and we have a guy that does interior repair that's freakin' amazing, and all the BMW's have Leather....

Thanks for the tip. I'll consider it depending on how much a black one is going to cost me and I also have to see what this one may be worth before I mess it up trying to dye it.

I didn't notice that you live in Michigan as well; I live on Grosse Ile.

There ya go.

When you're looking at your gallery profile page you'll see a little ? in the top right corner. Click on it and you'll get the URL to your gallery to post in a message. Also, click on User CP at the top of this page, then edit profile, and add your gallery number. Your gallery 4-digit # is 7512. If you put that 4-digit # in your profile you'll get a little camera to appear in the top right of each post like I have. That will link you to a persons gallery.

Yes I am selling the Lariat dash bezel, but not separately... I'm going to put it on ebay and the classifieds with the Lariat cluster.
