I have the same gauges and they are very easy to install. If you can't follow the DIY hopefully this will help. The replacement gauges just fit right over the top of the factory gauges, you will need some glue or double-sided tape to hold them in place. Run the wires underneth the gauge cluster and attach the black ground wire to any metal suface. Then take the red wire from the new gauge faces and attach it to the red/black wire from the wire cluster with the blue clip ( you will need to expose the wires and then strip back the plastic covering on the red/black wire and then just attach the red wire form the gauges to the red/black wire and cover with electrical tape. Now test them before you put everything back together. You can put the switch anywhere you want I put mine in the coin tray, it is a good spot. Hope this helps.
