Cool Got my reverse indiglos

These are the gauges
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1864632846

They look cool and i love the white guages during the day but, there a little too damn dim.
I have indiglos for my accord and they light up my whole face, these you cant really see during the day at all but at pitch night darkness there pretty damn cool, just not too bright.
Anyways just wanted to share this with you all in case you were lookin to get em
I wired em good after some trial and error i found a ground at the beginning of my center counsil and i wired the postive to the light swith harness. Its the red and black wire if you all would like to know anyways out of a scale of 1-10 id give em a 7 I paid 55 for em

Strange how they have them for the FB's and the S5's. I have asked the seller when are they coming out with them for the s4 but I did not get a reply.

Oh boy, I bought the same gauges... haven't gotten them just yet. Any suggestions for making them brighter when I put them in?

by the way they have 5 diffrent color settings, and a brightness control which is kinda cool
They make em so you can customize them to any color profile you might have in your exterior/interior

Wow, they do? But then the brightest setting isn't bright enough, huh? Well, we'll put up a post later tonight to figure it out. I'll PM you to figure what questions to ask. I'm thinking possible a direct power from the battery, for one...

Ya can you make them really green? Like a darker green than in the picture? Looking for a white faced gauge during the day that matches the GReddy gauges I got.

Ok well the colors alternate kind of a lot basically it goes green center, green numbers, blue center blue numbers
green center, dark blue numbers
dark blue center, dark blue numbers
so basically it does alternate between blue and green but its like diffrent shades of it plus diffrent combinations
And yes even with the brightness setting at full they are still pretty dim
But again i will say i am happy with them and i do recomend them

I just got a respond from them (finally). They said all your questions are on the site. It gets updated weekly. I still don't see Silver Reverse Glows.

Ok i went out to my car to look one more time and the green setting actually has a green border that makes the numbers look green but the numbers are actually always blue, just lit up green on the gauge. (lol this is getting complicated too much colors)
If you have green gauges then the green setting will look awsome even with a little blue, especially if you have a deck with blue or maybe green.
sorry this is getting so complicated its just basically an alterantion between diffrent shades of blue/green

i finished my install of my indiglo and they look pretty good, they have a decent brightness, even in the city at night, but i have a problem. I think i might have f*cked with one of my needles too much because now it's not working. It's the fuel gauge and i even filled up my tank and it still doesn't read . is it f*cked or is there something i can do?

nevermind, i'm just special . One of the wires i feed behind the gauge faces was interfering with the fuels guages operation . just something the think about if anyone else installs indiglo gauges.
