Default Indiglo glow gauge cluster step in...

I am thinking of getting a set of new gage overlays, Does anyone have these that can share a few pictures and thoughts?
Thanks.

and a lot of the manufacturers don't make them any more: I'm on the fence about them as well. Plus, I don't really want some that will look like they belong on a Mustang, which is what is mainly out there for the Vette right now.

Tried one cost me a cluster, the ones on Ebay do not fit correctly, pig tails for electrical connection to the faces do not clear cluster structure, overlay was to thick to clear gauge needles. Tried to pull up the tach needle to gain some clearance and bingo upset the motor that drives the tach.

While I will agree that Gage has been overlaid, forum rules will not allow posting of pics. Google does though.

Mr. Bill,
Have had these for six years and would never go back.







Drive it like you stole it

That's why they are on my car, and not yours.

Isn't this country great, that way?!?

Where can I get a set just like that? All I can find are called Reverse Glow. The whole white part is not lit at night.

Mr. Bill I did this to My Chevy Silverado and I love it I have bought 2 set's now for my vette and they suck. One set I was able to send back the other set I gave away and the guy put them on and he laid them over the factory one's and jacked it all up. If you find a good set for the vette please share as I would love to get one for my car.
