^^ with old LEDs. Needles didn't light up well.

Here is a video of how it looks with Tri-Blue LEDs:

I prefer this over lightblades as his is too "over-the-top" for me. That's just me though. I'm more for a subtle change that looks stock, but pops.

Go S&H Auto Trends. They have the Bullitt knock off gauge faces. They also can make whatever face you want. It is $60 for whatever. Any backlight color, any lettering color. The Bullitt style ones aren't exact, but they have a classic muscle car look. Let them know what you want. I have three sets of faces from them. Problem is, they take forever to get them. I have only received one of three that I ordered so far. Some Bullitts in white letter/black back/green light, Bullitts in in that muscle car green letter/black back/ green light, and a set that was copied from my Porsche 924, in white letter/black back/green light. You can take a picture or draw what you want, then send it to them. You can have the redline markings set wherever. The quality is good. About like the rest. I too am fed up with the few choices I always find--I hate white face gauges, and the flames type ones are just that---flaming. I'll get some pics.

HAHAH you gotta be kidding me, you masked off your interior and just painted it? You do realize the airbag module comes out with two little screws, and those switch bezels just pop out.


Ambo, those tri-LED's are badass, looks like thats what I'll be switching to - hopefully it will solve my darkness problems!

I have Bullitt gauges in my GT, took me forever to find them - I had always wanted them! Much better than the green stock cluster, love the retro look:

S&H retro style gauges, green letter/black back/ stock green lighting. I'll install them and get more pics in a few hours. My aux gauges are from Classic Instruments, the G/Stock series. I like the 60's muscle car looking gauges. Namely the GM's with their round dials and green lettering. I am having an A/C plate done in matching green as well. S&H can build whatever overlays you need. They just use a sheet of arylic, and silkscreen printing. The power of CNC machines.

its a two position swith, the gauges are white like the svt ones during the day and light up either blue or green depending on the position of the switch, not both colors at the same time, the green looks just like the svt green glow, and the blue is a little more exotic

Screw S&H Auto Trend. Their gauges suck. I am trying to put on the ones I posted a pic of. The holes aren't cut out, nothing fits, the two piece thing is not happening, and the quality is below standard. The quality sucks actually. You can't send this stuff back either.
