Default Anyone want Indiglo gauges?

If you are intrested in a little project, I have a solution to everyone's problems with the gauges going out. I took my gauges out and took a digital photo of them (it would probally be better to scan it) Once you have the file on you computer take it to someone that knows how to use Photoshop. They can change the black to white and the numbers to black. Now once you have that, print it on a clear transpareny. Now I went to www.beingseen.com and bought an EL sheet kit for gauges. It costs 95.00 dollars. Now what this is, is a sheet that lights up when power is run to it. So now you can cut the transparency and EL sheet to fit over your gauges. Run a wire to the supplied inverter and you now have indiglo gauges. One piece of advice: I took the LED's out of the needles so they would light up, because some of mine worked and some didn't. If you have any questions, email me.

I prefer someone hacking in the gauges to find a way to change the colors instead of the indiglos.

Are you talking about changing the colors of the numbers? If so, you will still be unable to see your gauge if your LED goes out on the needles. This is just a option that worked really well on my 93.
