White or Amber Defi

I am going to purchase some new Defi gauges, but cannot decide on the white or amber Defi BF gauges. Need some opinions.

Thanks

Amber for the Evo, I saw the White in an Audi S4 and it looked insanely hot but it wouldn't look the same in the Evo.

I have not seen the amber and white side by side so I cannot comment. But whites will be relatively easier to read than the amber.

I'm not a big fan of the EVO IP cluster. You sometimes have to concentrate to see your speed with the red/black IP. However, the white BF Defis are so easy to read and they look HOT!!! Also the white DO NOT look out of place in the EVO. I know some people think they won't match, but you have to see them in person to realize just how beautiful the whites look at night. Especially if u're mounting them on the A-pillar the whites are a lot easier/cooler on the eye than the red...esp at night

You won't be disappointed either way. I personaly like the whites so good luck.

I think it all comes down to personal preference.

I have ambers. I love them. I got them cause they match the stock gauges. Can't go wrong either way though.

my buddy has the white ones and theyre amazing really, but i havent seen the ambers in person. i'd still get amber just so it matches, it will look more OEM and at night switching from one color to another may screw u up.

i've installed the white ones.... am getting the amber units in a weeks time just to try it out. The amber will match the speedometer, but then again, the white will blend well with all the stuff i have in the centre of the dashboard, that includes the link module.... so how?
