Are you saying they were annoyingly eye catching?

I have the ATM 5978. Same price, but trimmed in black. Attractive and easy to read. Very satisfied.

Using the C2 model myself. Easy to hook up, I like how it seemed to have more leds along it's sweep. Seems like it's a little smoother that way. I like the little things it does, the auto dim feature, the peak recall feature (have it hooked up to a WOT switch), the heater delay as it turns on with 12v but heats only when it sees 13+ (so only when engine is actually running).

These may be standard on all meters, couldn't say. But they are some of the reasons I like this one.
