This really is a disease I have!! Thanks...I'm really pleased with the final product. The gauges light up just as the factory ones do...white backlighting of the numbers in the gauge face, and "fiber optic effect" red/orange glowing needles. Included with the gauges are a choice of green or red covers that you can put on the light bulb to give you the desired illumination color. The "white" of the bare (clear) bulb makes the numerals a little whiter than the "yellow-cream" color of the main dash display. Being as I'm a damn perfectionist, I may see if there is either a more yellow bulb cover or a frosted white bulb to soften the lighting so it will perfectly match the main cluster.

Like I said, it's really a pretty simple project overall...I usually run into many more pitfalls and roadblocks when I get an idea for an "improvement" such as this!
