Hello all, I have finally gotten a set of
white-faced gauges for my Gen4. There are three pictures of
them, one showing the dash without the gauges, one day
time shot, and one night time shot. The night shot is
a bit unclear, and it lights up a little better
than what the photo shows. However, talking with MMR,
they do NOT recommend putting the hyperwhite bulbs in
the dash because they will get too hot behind the
dash. This is the second set I received from them,
still wrong. First set sent was for a Gen3, this set,
without the Chinese/Japanese numerical characters for the
speedometer and tachometer. But they have guaranteed me that
this final set, being made again, will be the correct
one. Overall, I'm still happy with MMR since they have
been very courteous in accommodating the errors.

Doh...I forgot to mentioned that the pictures are
located in the Inside View of Camry, under the Photos
link. I've also included two night time shots of the
Sylvania Cool Blue and FET Catz MSX lights in the Front
View of Camry.

Did you encounter any problems when you installed the gauges? Did you have to
have any of the gauges recalibrated?

No problems in installing the gauges. The only
hard part was getting the indicator needles off since
they are on there pretty tight. The recommendation was
to use a spoon and go around the needle base to pry
it off. I found that rather hard, so I took the 3
separate units off from the back, and used a small
screwdriver and pushed the needles off. Since I'm waiting for
the final, and hopefully, correct set to come it, I
will recalibrate then.

Are you getting them recalibrated at a dealership?? How much?? I'm thinking
about changing my gauges also. But I want to make sure I know what I'm getting
into first. Thanks.

Well, I called my dealership and they said that
since it's not OEM, i.e. Toyota, the outside company
who does the recalibration will not service it. I'll
have to ask another dealership to make sure that's
correct. Otherwise, I'll have to find a shop that will do
it.

The pictures are under "Inside View of Camry"
from the Photos link. I got the green on white gauges.
The instruction that came with it is a very general
one, so, it didn't really help much. It does not tell
you how to remove the dash either.
