Yeah, that orange made me sick so I had to lose it. I miss the silver background... but love my blue lighting.
 
orange, huh...do u now how those guys convert the colors to red..blue, green or whatever, w/o chaning the gauages, cuz im sure uve notied the little bulbs in that back that just pop out...and hte bulbs r white...so how do they change the color

u have to sand down the stock gauges to past the orange film till it looks white, it takes a while....u have to pop-out the needles to get the gauges out, just use a flat head for the needles...but the downside is u have to recalibrate the gauges if u dont mark exactly where the needle was before u took it off and put it back in that same spot.
 
oh shit no wonder my speedometer doesnt start up till im at like 15 mphs, i think i poped off the needle and put it in wrong or something, how do i fix dat? and where will they doit? or can i do it?
 
They look just like the black gauge faces from other years/models when illuminated at night... black with orange lettering.

I can't show a pic because I installed silver-faced overlays that light up with blue lighting instead. Looks MUCH better and actually much easier to read. I love them :D
