    Amber at night, when the other lights are on. This fuzzy picture doesn't do them justice,, they look great at night, they all look the same color, (not at all like this pic. where the temp looks super bright, and the oil pressure looks like it has a lot of Blue in it) definitely a brighter Amber than stock, but still, nice.

    That looks great. Doesn't look like you used the oem lens. I was afraid it wouldn't look right but it seems you made it work.

    Maybe I'm going blind, but did you put the clear plastic cover back over them? Doesn't look like it but it's hard to tell. Gauges look great though, nice job.

    No clear plastic oem lense,, I tried to use them, but I didn't like the look of 2 lenses.. no offence to anyone who has, it just looked weird to me. I did use the other 2 pieces though. I dremeled out the Black piece to fit these in and still keep the hood part, and cut the complete back off the White piece, shortened it a bit so it wasn't so deep, and I was still able to use the stock mounting bracket. I made a new back for the White piece to secure them to. Let me see what pictures I have.

    Here is a picture of the inside, like I said I cut the back off of this white stock gauge pod to gain access to the wires, and made a new back plate to run the bolts & wires through then screwed the new back into this White piece with a few of the old screw holes you can see in this picture to hold it all together. Again, this was so I could use the stock mounting brackets.

    What gauges are you using?

    I'm using Depo Racing gauges, I've read mixed reviews. But mostly positive. I only wanted the one digital, (Oil Pressure) because I thought all 3 would be to bright, & the Oil pressure is the most important to me. Digital is about $10 more than the regular ones.
