Here are a few crappy pics I just took while testing the gauges out. Sorry for the quality but in trying to make it dark enough to see the gauges but light enough for the camera to work this is about all I was willing to do without breaking out my good camera. These are shots of each setting, blue and green with the brightness turned all the way up. The difference in the green and blue is more noticable in person. The best analogy is like comparing HIDs to halogens. The blue is a nice bright white with a blue tint and the green are more of a duller white with a slight green tint:


Green:



Blue:

Blue:




I'll post actual pics once they are installed.

Err disregard I should learn to read...

White with a tint of blue? Have you seen the Defi BF white gauges in person by chance? If so, how would the whites compare?

This might be a stupid question but are these pnp or does it require splicing? I'm guessing some splicing has to be done.

You have to splice into the cluster harness to get power.

No problem. Now that I think about it the same guages with a darker blue illumination on the numbers etc that are currently white would look good. Who knows maybe he'll make some.

What I'd love to have, which is a perfect mix of white and blue IMO, is an instrument panel like the one in my RL:

No your MPH is not off, the extra 20mph is not because they have squished the gauge. He is just extending the existing MPH from 160 to 180 using the existing blank space.
