The major issue your going to have is the white needles over the white face gauges. Completly nonvisible. Your best bet is to paint the needles with a reflective paint which can be aquired at your local hobby store or paint warehouse. OR if your baller enough switch out the needles from ones of a miata, they are clear and you can add a red LED light to them which will give you glow needles

My friend had them on his S5 N/A, looked horrible IMO especially at night when you couldn't see the needles. I think the S5 N/A stock cluster looks best:
