I have been looking and looking for a high quality cluster replacement for my 09 2500HD, I think the search is over. Check out this sick cluster from RBP. The cost is $199.00 and the white needle kit is an extra $50.00 :D

Some other options too... These are from usspeedo. There are a few other vendors that make faceplates and needles as well.

Here's the NuImage you mentioned, I like it, though it has a classic font that doesn't match anything else in the truck but still looks sick as hell.. I especially like the white by NuImage but the photo wont enlarge. Looks to be made by the same people.

Here's the NewImage

Ive been looking at the RBP's too. They have that nautical look but a lot cheaper than others. They would compliment my boats nice too. (Any excuse to order something) lol

Well, got the face in and.. Its not all that nice in person and when compared to the stock LMM cluster its a POS!

1. Its very flimsy and will not lay flat without glue
2. There's a total of [3] RBP logos backlit on the face
3. The plastic color behind the face is a joke its so cheap like light baggie plastic, and the blue doesnt match anything, its not really blue or turqoise.

Bottom line, don't do it guys I sent mine back.

Sorry they did not work out, I liked the way they looked and was really looking forward to possibly trying these out as well, I appreciate the review, saves guys like us who were on the fence the time and trouble of dealing with them

Thanks Josh, My only advise would be if a guy wants to change the face out, then do the whole cluster. The problem is nobody makes a really nice one yet.

Otherwise your just buying a micro thin overlay.
