Dude, they're probably just overlays. If you can figure out how to get the cluster out to trade with someone then I'm sure you can pull the white faces off. People just use double sided tape to stick them on. Read the how-to on changing gauge cluster light bulbs and you're home free.

What are you talking about? Just pull the overlay off. It's just like a sticker people put over the stock gauges. It's very simple, and cheap. And you don't have to deal with shipping or anything.

This is what we're trying to tell you: You have black faced gauges underneat the white ones! Follow the how-to for changing cluster lights to uninstall your cluster. Then, INSTEAD of changing the cluster lights, just remove the white faces! That how-to will walk you through to the point that you can get the cluster out of the car and remove the faces.

By the way, be very careful when removing the faces. I've heard that if you pull the needles off accidentally you are totally screwed. Also watch out for the wiring that they did to wire the gauge faces in. You'll have to disconnect that while removing the gauge cluster. Good luck and take pics while you're doing it so you can help someone else out with it someday!

what? No you can take the needles off and be ok as long as your careful about it. I took mine off and everything is still exactly on. Its just a very meticulous job so just take your time and be careful. I will gladly pay for shipping and take those white face gauges off your hand. Lemme know a shipping quote as soon as you can.
