Alfa Otto Reverse glow gauge cluster.
Just got this in today and installed it. I have read a ton of post here about people wanting to see what they look like installed in a car. Well i have that after the 8 plus years that people have been asking to see them. Already know people are going to call it rice and some are going say it not there style. But for me i didn't care as long as i can see my burned out needles at night.
Pre-wiring no power.
After wiring and powered up.
This is with green Inner Rings
This is with Blue Inner Rings
Not perfect there are actually a handful of flaws i can list.
Air bag light doesn't match.
The Turn signal arrow only show about 1/3
takes like 5+ tries to get to line up properly so all the lights show.
Makes LED conversion completely useless as covers them up.
But all in all i am happy with it.

RPM needle didn't make it through a attempt at modifying with LED fiber optics. Fail more when i tried to reinstall it and without the neon it wouldn't work due to balance issues.
On another note just drove the car to get something to eat and man these gauges look incredible. Plus the best part is i can actually tell what speed i am going now.

Would it make a difference if I only payed $28 dollars for the whole kit? For those who don't know the kit runs around $154. It is a legit kit too came from Alfa Otto themselves.
