The are, but do not show up very well in the pic, dark /no flash pictures are really a pain in the a#. The hands are not as bright as I'd like them to be, I might have a bulb or two out, but they are lit, I'm not motivated enough to tear it apart again. They are not perfect, but for <$100 IIRC I like em. I have a couple pics of the overlays (pre-installation) that I could post if anybody is interested.

where did you get the overlays. looks good at night. I have the same gauges but I went a little crazy. I have a total of 7 gauges in the front. when they all light up my oem gauges is overwelmed by all of the indiglo gauges. I would like the oem to match the indiglo ones.

Same place where I got mine from. I didn't drill thou, I used the mounting bracket with the double sided tape, it's been holding quite well for over 3 months.

Took about a week
Came in a nice clear plastic box w/ 6ft of 5/32(4mm) hose, tee, (2) wire electrical connector (too short) but not a big deal and mounting bracket.
