I was wondering if anyone new of a place that sells reverse glow gauges. I bought a set off Ebay (big mistake) but amongst other problems, it didnt come with the turn signals or i guess you would call them emergency or hazard gauge? ( the one that lets ya know the e-brake is on, low coolant, etc.) I found this one i liked on uprproducts.com
96-98 Mustang GT Silver Reverse Glow Gauges
But havent received an email back saying that it comes with the turn signals or other gauge.

Anyone know of a place that does sell something similar to this with all the "gauges?"

I don't know anything about them, but have you looked into the LED bulb gauge swap? It's not hard or expensive to do; it turns the gauges blue at night, but keeps the black face gauges. I love how it looks. Just a suggestion in case you haven't seen them.

Here's a link to the pictures of mine. Scroll down towards to bottom for the best pictures. http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/807500-latest-things-done-my-car.html

That is what im going for pretty much. Only problem is, the guy that i bought my car from didnt have his gauges connected to the power supply (there is no power supply dealy) which is the reason i want to get new gauges. The gauges in the car when i got it were crap, not the stock ones at all. The gauges i bought off ebay just arent doing it for me so im trying to replace all the gauges. Yours look exactly what im going for though, maybe if i can find some stock gauges ( i like the black stock ones ) ill just replace the bulbs like you did.

Yea, I love the blue look at night, but I'm not big on white face, unless it's on a Cobra. The black face looks much better with the stock black interior in my car. So what I did suits me perfectly. If you do do it, don't buy cheap LEDs from Ebay; they don't last. Get them from superbrightleds.com.

You might could find a stock cluster from a junkyard for cheap.

i had white reverse glow gauges in my car when i got it. i took them out because :

-looked gaudy
-the needles stuck to them since you overlay it on top of the gauge cluster

Those gauges do look nice .... but it doesnt look like the gauges come with turn signals and the hazard/caution lights. ( could someone please tell me the correct term for the lights at the bottom. i.e. e-brake, o/d off, low coolant)

If you are wanting the bottom of the gauges where the ebrake and check engine lights are I don't think they make those to change to white unless maybe some old Simco's do and I don't know for sure about those. Alot of the products are overlays and they dont change the bottom gauges so maybe someone who has Simco's could tell us but they don't make them anymore so finding a set would be tough.
