Question about white faced guages (NOT indiglo type)
I was just wondering (wanting new guage faces for my '00 Civic) how do normal white faced guages look at night? Like after market ones I mean. Do only the numbers on them light up? And if so what color? Anyone have pics of normal white face guages lit up at night then can post up?

The any text/numbers/marks will appear in stock colors with plain white gauge overlays you have mentioned. (Very easy install!) I can't remember what color they would appear because I haven't seen a Civic with stock gauges for a lo0o0ong time. (I have indiglos myself.)

Hows the audio setup going? These motor swaps are keeping me hella busy and I think I might make a total 180 and focus on swaps, kits, cd hoods, rims etc over the audio. Not that I dont enjoy audio, but this other stuff is alot more fun

Audio set up is on hold since school is kickin my buttocks. Dude, all I need is a better amp for myself and fine tuning. The wife says, "Don't even touch the Mirage!" Plus, it's not really worth it. Have you any idea where I can pick up an SQ comp disc for cheap? I've been hanging around with too many SPL-oriented peoples that I am starting to go off on a tangent...

Personally, I did not like the grey-look, so I went and bought a blue light gel and now they are blue.

you can grab a gel at a music store.
cellaphaine? I have no clue. I would think the constant light from the bulbs would fade that material really fast. In relation to pics - don't have any .... yet

Thanks for the info on it. Thinking about ti, I guess the cellaphaine would discolor after a while from the heat. What kind of music store are you refering to for the gel? Like a CD/music type music store, or a music store that sells DJ equipment?

i had indiglos in which the transformer blew or something, so they were just plain white for a while.
it actually looked real tight with my red needles at night. I would say it looked gray. i think it looked white to me. |
