wtf....white face gauges..
i bought some macewens white face gauges for xmas and ever since then i have been having trouble with them bubbling up.....it is happening with the speedometer gauge....it bubbles up and then the needle gets stuck....not a good thing.....first time i tried double sided tape.no good....then glue stick.no good....last i tried super glue.it is holding in some areas but not all....plus my giant gas gauge fell down too.........when i touch the outside lens it feels really warm....i thought that it was the heat doing it, but now i think that it is the xenon bulbs making it really hot and causing bubbling....they are the bulbs from macewens too.....i was wondering if this has happened to anyone else or am i the only one??!!??!

really??? that sucks maybe you should tell the guys at mcewens. Mine have never done that. I did have my small middle face fall down once but when I pushed it back up its stayed eversence. I guess I dont have those bulbs but i do have anftermarket blue ones but i got no bubbleing. Id email them!

Bummer man!! I got them also and other than the tape not sticking ive had zero problems. I actually got some scotch tape and folded back so it would be double sided. Ive had the gauges for like 4 months and had no problems. I put it around the corners and you cant tell at all.
Id give Ryan a buzz and see if maybe yours are defective or something.
Ive had mine in the car for almost 2 or 3 years now ( i cant even remember) and ive never even had a problem with the tape coming off.
He was really cool about a mix up in my order though, and ive found customer service was great there....

Hmm...Mine are fine and I'm using xenon bulbs. Been about a year now.
Call him back. He's was cool with my order when there was a mix-up.
Sorry to hear that.
