Indiglo Gauges Installed

I took the whole hour and 15 minutes and installed them last night after work. They are really easy to install, and the look GREAT. I give them a 10 for appearance during the day and night. I have the whole write-up on my site under How-To's and then under appearance

nice looking ,,
but i have a question for ya are you going to start selling these it would make more sense if you sold them
rather than us having to find something so rare .
plus maybe who ever is making them only has to worry about just making it instead of maketing them.

if you are not going to sell them can you atleast post the name of the co. you got them from? thanks in advanced by the way how much they cost you????

He guys. Thanks for the feedback. I wrote him to see if he is interested in advertising on the site, so that is what I am waiting on. They were indeed bought from eBay and the sellers username on eBay is "godblesseveryone" He was really a good seller, and had fast shipping. There was no original wraping on them so I don't think there is an actual sales venue except for eBay. I offered for the site to offer a direct link to either a store, email address whatever for him to sell direct to FC owners so he doesn't have to pay the eBay fees etc. I am sure that he will offer the TII ones if he offers the N/A ones through the site. I'll let you guys know what I find out.

I drove home from the David Lee Roth / Sammy Hagar concert last night (los angeles to san diego) and I got to enjoy my 2 favorite mods at the same time! Real HID headlights and indiglo gauges Looks really sweet.

I have the same guages... I love them!

I think that you can get the odom to illuminate if you reinstall the lower guage bulbs. I chose to use their holes for my wiring because i don't want to know how far I don't go on a tank of gas, and I know that my 87 na has roughly 140k on it.

As an added bonus I have a Pioneer 6400 with an organic display and the indiglo matches exactly.

Hey you mentioned you slip them on over the old faces. How did you get the needles off and on?

I was wondering about that too. It looks like you slid the holes in the middle of the faces over the needles. IS that right? Are they flexible?
