pic post of illuminated boost/temp gauges

I am going to be ordering gauges soon and it would be appreciated if people could take a few pics of your aftermarket gauges at night with them illuminated. I searched and the results were lest then spectacular, and all the places that sell them have pics of them when they are not lit up.

thanks in advance.

those are some cool looking gauges.

but does anyone have pics for "normal" looking setups? I am going to do the tripower gauge pod with 52 mm gauges, but it is hard to know which gauges will look the best at night, so any pics of Blitz, Defi etc gauges would be much appreciated.

not sure what blitz does have but if you look closely at that boost gauge you can see the Blitz Racing logo.

Okay, maybe I can get an answer here. where did you wire in the dimming wire and which wire did you tap into?

Specifically I have a greddy electronic boost gauge, and I'm having a problem wiring in the dimmer (white wire)

any suggestions would help.

I like the green gauges also. The gauges I would love to put in my car are those R1 gauges (the ad are in the Super Street & Sports Compact Car Magazines) that change color at the same time (when you buy the color changing module of course). I would think that'll look very nice in a FC.

ok- do any 52mm gauges lite up red/amber/orange?

they all seem to be green or blue.....
if this is all that are available, so be it, but I would prefer stock looking gauges if available....
