Default wanna change the gauges

i wanna change my guages, and get some after market ones, because my RPM gauge is on a huge delay, and the speedometer doesnt always work and the TEMP is always below average something is fu*ed up lol

how should i changed them im thinking about putting something that looks like the turbo guages, but what can i do with my current gauges if i take them out theyll be a huge missing piece lol

please give me advice and also where i can get these things and if it should be hard to install, because the RPM's and and TEMP is really pissing me off... the speed i dont car much about as long as im out of 4th gear haha..

i've seen someone keep the stock cluster and cut holes and remove stock gauges and slip in some after market. i would suggest cutting or get a bezel cut for you and slip in some aftermarket gauges. or you can go all out and spend 600 bucks at florida5.0 and get a sick gauge set up all pre wired ready for install with full intructions
