about 45 minutes, took longer to get the cluster in and out of the car than it did to actually install the faces and wire it
 
You should toss up the "issues" with the oil pressure gauge for future reference.
 
i didnt take any pics when i did them unfortunatly but here are installed pics with them during the day and at night

I have these also, but after the install, my fuel gauge started breaking up. sometimes it works sometimes not. they look good tho.

I dont know if you took your time installing it or what but I got mine all done in less than half an hour.
 
the intructions say to take out the 2 screws next to each needle, which you do. what they fail to tell you is you need to take the oil guage out of the cluster first, because those 2 screws arent so little in that guage and hold everything together. theres just 2 screws holding it in, you'll know which ones im talkin about when you see them.

did you get the face on straight? not rubbing on the needle shaft? or did you move the needle at all during install?
 
When i got it on, it was slightly bent and the needle on the RPM and MPH were rubbing agaist the face but I put double sided tape to hold it straight.

i took out all the needles when before i put it on. it was a bi*** getting them all lined up tho.

you obviously didnt read the directions, your not supposed to TOUCH the needles let alone remove them, and the 2 screws next to each needle hold them in place perfectly as long as everything is lined up
