The cluster in the SS is different than that one. Only the RPM gauge is silver, the rest are black. As far as I know, the white faced gauges only came in the 05 models (mine has one too)

Wow -- that really is a unicorn, then. I would've guessed it was an aftermarket part that the previous owner put in. Great find! Congrats! Now go buy a lottery ticket... lol.

The light that comes out around the circle of the needles is weird so I might pull it out again and put some black on the gauge face to block the light coming out but other that that I love them!!

If it was a uniform glow across all of the needles, then I think it would look pretty cool. But yeah, all of them glowing different from each other would bug me too.

When I get the motivation I’ll take it apart again and try to black out certain areas to see if I can fix it.
It still looks awesome but I have adhd when it comes to my truck and if it’s not perfect I go bat shit crazy till it’s fixed lol

What type of LEDs did you use, and how close to the gauge face are they mounted? I glanced down at mine on the way to work this morning, and all my needle bases have roughly the same glow, probably matching your RPM gauge.
