INDIGLO GAUGES vs. BLUE REVERSE Indiglo Gauges




VS.




I know there have been write-ups on the standard indiglo gauges but how do people like the blue reverse indiglo gauges. I want one, just not sure which. There is a great thread on the "standard" ones Here

I like the orange style. Its kinda like retro now since everyones got new fancy white gauges and such. But if I were to get one I'd go with the reverse... BTW is there anyway to stop it from turning green??

Not sure, but think Indiglo is naturally green/blue. I think it is like the old Times watches. Doubt that orange would be possibe for Indiglo.

Anyone tried the two styles in question?

It doesnt turn green by itself, green is a color option you set yourself. So you can have your gauges blue or green.

I like the second set of gauges, except the big *** circle in the middle of the RPM and MPH gauges. If that was removed, I'd be interested in a set.

I have the regular indiglo. By the time I put that in, and replaced the stereo with a Pioneer 6400 the only orange left was the heater controls and the lighter surround. If you are going to keep the factory stereo, then try to get orange reverse.

The regular indiglos can be switched between blue and green, and have a **** to adjust brightness.

I prefer stock look over anything else. The orange is so much better than those.
