I got mine from CTA Motorsports
I think I paid under $100.00
Took about 1 hour to install myself.

We had a group buy a while back for Speedhut gauges. The appeal of these gauges are that they are totally customizable (colors, logos, EL-glow/reverse EL-glow, etc), high quality, and one of the few available with KM/H displayed as the primary numbers.
You can always get cheap ones on ebay, but there's no one vouching for quality there.

Just remember if you do the change over on your car becareful to read your warentee on this since your car is an 05 ?
Ford might voild your warentee on this mod, so really check into it.

I had speedhut gauges on my old focus, they looked like this.......
as for the install, real easy, only dificult part was to reset the needles to the rght caliberation.

cool that kinda answered my next question...but did you remove the whole cluster or is it easier than doing that??
Actually i'm ordering from Speedhut, any major concerns i should know about them? also i noticed when designing my gauges, it only shows MPH....is there a way to specify KM/H instead????

Yeah you just have to include the info in the notes section or something of your order that you want the display in km/h.
The install is pretty simple.. I used the how-to here: http://www.jwardell.com/focus/guages.html as a guide and everything went really smoothly. I havent really taken much of a look at the 2005 interior so I dont know how much of the disassembly would be different though. The only problem I had was with unplugging the wiring harness from the gauge cluster, there was a locking lever you have to open before the harness will unplug.. took me a while to figure out why it wouldnt come out :D
And for wiring them up, I'd suggest going to CanTire or walmart and picking up an "Add-a-Circuit" fuse rather than the way that guide suggests.
