I enjoyed this video...I have a 2001 GMC Sierra (best vehicle I've ever owned) with 260k. Going to fix it up with mods like this because I can't see paying 90k for a new one...thnx!
Mario has done a great job at explaining most everything, but the procedure of needle removal/installation is 100% wrong. I’ve owned a speedometer repair company for the past 16 years(01/15/24). The video was edited from when he installed the needles. The stepper motors on this cluster are magnetic. The unit needs to be powered on during calibration and needle installation. The calibration needs to happen before the needles are removed. The part of removing the needles to the point of reinstalling is incorrect. The cluster must installed and powered on before marking and removing the needles, then install them in the same place when the cluster is powered on. This information only applies for the 99-02 year model GM full size, not for the 03-06/7 classic. 1988-2002 have magnetic aircore steppers and need different treatment than the notorious 03-06 models.
@@5speedsierra673remove all the needles and start by putting the key in pre ignition prime it 3 times to get them all to line up and then install them by putting them in 0 RPMS and 0MPH and do the rest just like that

Thanks, the support means a lot
you are brave! You just saved yourself $300 dollars
Thanks for the video. I am going for orange lights. I had orange in a 96 Bonneville that I had and it looked great at night.
What’s the link for the turn signal lights
U didn’t show how to install the needles?
certain way to align the needles?
Yes
lol watch how to set them. That dude Jeff does them.
Your idle sits at 1000?
I have an 01 Silverado and she idles at 500
Very random, but caught my eye
Oh yeah I didn't notice, my 2000 GMC Sierra also idles at 500.
That’s because he didn’t align his needles back the right way so everything is going to read more or less than what it actually is.
Question, i know the needles are white . But for them to light up white didnt u have to put in white bulbs ? Or ?
Good question actually. I know having the white leds makes it 2x as bright I think I’d look at PI clusters IG page for some sample ideas.
With that being said u put red leds on ur cluster ? Any luck on figuring out how to get the warnung light/turn signals to light up to your liking
My gas gauge n oil pressure gauge don’t work now after install🤦🏽♂️ any advise
Damage to the stepper motors maybe? Any spin at all from them?
@@MarioZermeno yea they spin just noticed I might have put the needles in wrong
yea all my needles are fucked.
I bought the same cluster but for some reason the PRND shows green like oem, any reasons why?

Any chance you can do a video on this?
Sorry it's not our product@@Checooms
Any suggestions of correcting the needles on a 99-02? My speedometer is off.

How do you change the color for the Odometer/Gear Shifter? Can’t find anything I have a 2001 Chevy Tahoe so I don’t have 2 sodar.
So you have to buy a different face plate if you don’t wanna solder, the faceplate has a color tinted film to change the color
where can i get the red bulbs?
4:27 where can I find that size of led for the turn signals
T 10
What year is the after market Escalade lens? Is there a new link for the Escalade lens?
2002
Where can I find the Escalade lens?????
Did you use red leds for the t10s or white leds ?
T10 they are white the overlay is red
Did u order just the red and the gear selector was blue on the website but with the red face ?
Overlay is red not the bulbs
Send the link to the turn signals u didn’t leave a link bro
How can I get the red face but white numbers
Just get white bulbs for the numbers instead of red and get the red face
Is there any red SS overlays for a 03-06 silverado that have a red screen over the PRND?
Yes google 03-06 Silverado overlay
Looks good
How much was the kit

I think so. they have a option on their website. Check it out

Dam that Escalade face is pricey
How u get the display to be red, is the tint?
Yea it comes with a tint film on the face overlay
Mine came blue is there a way to get a red one do u have to let them know u want red ?
Where do i order this from
I saw one on the internet for $20 not sure it's legit.
that overlay is wrong escalade for that generation
Bro did you really pay $560 dollars for the lens cover because that what the link is saying
Damn, that’s crazy I went and checked and no I only paid like $95 plus shipping for mine.
This is one expensive cluster build
It was “cheap” to me when I did it but I see now the prices went up a lot since then
