I'll agree with starscream5000.. the tint look is nice but from all that I seen it doesn't look nice in direct daylight. now a normal faced gauge is great. with the normal faced ones I wouldn't think twice about buying a whole set. so with that are you gonna make the normal ones for the peak/warn series and if so will they be lit with a green or blue led?

I have to disagree. The tint doesn't bother me at all. Then again, I have the green/white, which are more than bright enough during the day (white) without the hoods and even with the targa off, and almost too bright at night (green).

I can't say anything about the blue lighted gauges, because I don't have those.

I'll be using the tinted gauges in a pillar pod, and a normal gauges in my dash. Don't need unwanted attention when it's parked...

agreed. And like I said before. Its not the backlight the is the problem. I see the numbers and everything fine. In daylight and with the targa off. The needle is the problem. I have to search for it to find it. And honestly it might not even be the brightness of the needle but the angle im having to look at the guages in the pillar pod. I need to get in the back seat and look at them I guess.

Glenn, is there any way to get a color match on the amber LEDs? What I mean is, I put three of the guages in my dash cluster, and I want to change the green bulbs to amber LEDs to match the PS guages in the cluster... I'd like the colors to be as close as possible, if not the same...

Thanks...

*raises hand* I would... I actually just finished my exhaust this pas weekend and I was planning on getting some... You guys are making heat wraps now too?

BTW: Glenn, funny story, you know I had asked ya about gettin one of your metric adapter kits? Well, I was cleaning up my garage, and I found the box you shipped my gauges in, and there was some packing material, and I thought: this would be a good box to keep... So I pulled out the packing material, and guess what was in there: the metric adapter kit you sent me, lol... You know what I need now? The prosport.com vinyl... Gotta rep you guys!!!
