Default white face gauges?????

who has a set and are you happy w/ them and do they match other white gauges in your car???, I got another gauge that happens to be white so I want them to match.... BUT, the only ones I could find are the gay *** indiglow style, is there any that are like the aftermarket camaro style where you peel the old one off and stick the new one on and use the stock backlights... also where's the best place to get them from?? thanks

Ask AlCee1 ... we did his a week ago , and they looked bad @$$ ...
here's a pic, but they really look great in person. They are not indiglo, just stick onto stock face.

Yeah. Stock backlight. Good luck with your search. I hope someone local to you has these ... I'm only guessing, but I think he got these from Ecklers or PartsForYourCar.com

I have a set of the white face guages that match the aftermarket autometer guages I bought. I also got the blue anodized bezels for them too. Here is a few pics of them. I got them both from: www.westcoastcorvette.com I think you can get them for cheaper elsewhere, but not sure exactly.
