I dont like how they illuminate at night. That looks nasty (to me)
reverse indiglos look better.
wish I still had my picture hosted.

That's the TypeII font on those gauges, which was then reproduced in indiglo form by S/R Motorsports (White background, and blue/green lightup). Now it's produced by someone else.

Yes, I agree, Reverse Indiglo looks sharper at night, but you HAVE to consider, that are cars DO NOT have light up needles. You can't see the needle at night against reverse indiglos. And the uglier version of the reverse indiglows (with the inner circle that lights up ...strip) looks awful.

The best COMBO in my opinion are White Face, Reverse Indiglos, and a Light up needle like VolkRacing installed on his car but won't tell us how =p
