It looks like they should. However, beware!
I bought a set of silver reverse indiglo guages from eBay. Their were several flaws. It had the PND2L on the tach, which isn't on the original guage. Also, REAR DIFF light was spelled wrong "REAR DIFE." And several of the other lights were in the wrong place.
I've heard good things about NR auto. a place called NOPI online sells them.
But they're way more expensive.

Well, they used to. Apparently they don't anymore. Try this site:
NR Auto
Also, Performance Products carries the NR auto guages. My newest catalog lists them for $120 for the 2000 4Runner.

Hi guys,

I do NOT recommend NR Auto. Back in the days when I was looking for WFGauges, he sold me a 98 kit and said it fit my 99. He said it needed some cutting and some modification. Of course, the icons are totally different as I belatedly discovered when I fired it up.

To make a long story short, he totally denied he said any of this and wouldn't refund me my money. A few months, several phone calls to the credit card company, etc solved that and I got my $$$ back.

Furthermore, NR Auto gauges are NOT overlays but replacements. That means you have to take the old gauge plates out and reinstall the new ones. What does that mean? It means you have to go to a speedo shop to have them recalibrate your needles. Another $100-$150 if you bring in your gauge cluster. Even more if you drive in w/ it in your 4runner.

I believe Butnut had a similar experience. Brian?

Bob

Yes, the first ones seem like they would fit.

Have you seen the custom gauges at Speed Hut?

Right now they are trying to get 20 people (they have 7 already) to tool custom gauges for late model 4Runners. The gauges look pretty sharp and you can get different color fonts, white, silver, black, blue or red gauge faces and graphics like frames and racing stripes. They are totally custom built the way you want.

Yeah, I would'nt trust NRauto. They were real smooth talkers, took my money, than called me weeks later telling me the gauges are'nt available. Luckily, I got my money back. I got the Indi's off Ebay, they look OK, but I want the reverse Indi's from Speedhut. Place a pre-order...please. These will look great...custom any way you like.

i seriously don't understand why we just can't find 20 people with 99-02 4runner's that want these gauges....something must be terribly wrong with some people or we're just not reaching them. I mean who would not want those gauges...they're perfect....... i'm so sad i'm going to cry!:cry:

No problem. Misery loves company. Now we all have to wait. Wonder if we could each get a local dealership to give us a list of names with the relevant models and toss them all a mailing. Should get 1 or 2 bites.

What is the deal with this pre-order? I have been thinking about getting some indiglo gauges and I have seen several threads on here about it. I think I want some that are white during the day, but a bluish color at night. Can we specify with speedhut the color we want? If we add our names to the pre-order and then change out minds, do we still get charged? How difficult will the install be for these? Just an overlay over the current gauge face?

The 20 preorder requirement is so they have enough to justify the cost of the templates. The color scheme can be anything after they have the templates made. With speedhut you can specify just about every detail, even preview the scheme you have created. They auth your card now, just to make sure it isn't a dummy order, and you still have a change to back out before they go into production. I think they actually take the money real cose to when the stuff is going to ship. You get to confirm or change your design totally before the units go into production. They are overlays, so no need to pull the needles. Install seems pretty darm simple.

Now, go and order 12!

if you have a 99-02 4runner and you haven't already put your pre-order in, I don't know what's the matter, the speedhut ones are the best looking i've seen, and they look the best too, plus you can fully customize it, so hurry up and put your pre-orders in so we can all get the gauges and I can be happy.........

Hey how do I go about finding a good set of reverse indiglo's for my 96' Runner. I really want the reverse gauges, but I can't even find normal indi's on e-bay for 4Runners, the only ones I find are for Honda's and other rice burnners. Maybe I'm just new to the whole e-bay thing or really stupid but I can't find anything for the interior to fit a Runner. What kind of search do I need to do to get Runner or Toyota specific products?
