Default Red Gauges

I have looked everywhere and cannot find who or where to do the red gauge faceplates like in the pic below. Does anyone have any insight on this. I would like to have this done or do this to my gauges. Any insight or if anyone has a gauge set like this or the items to do so let me know. Feel free to comment or PM me. Thanks.

Where did you look? My 10-second Google search provided a link that shows Jeff at XtremeVettes being the one to contact regarding these.

Googled as well and saw the same thing. Xtremevettes is a dead end. The forum conversation you reference is dated and when I tried to look that route, all the links and so forth are no longer valid. I searched here as well.

They're no longer made. There's a thread on here I revived and they looked to see if they could make them again but the supplier that got them the needed material is gone.

I've also looked a couple months ago but the only ones I found are the white gauge faced ones. No other colors are available. If you find anything please post back up where you found them. Good luck.

Same here. Can only find white. The colored are easily found for C6 but not the C5.

Default Colored Gauge Faces

Speed Hut is the maker of most of these products. I bought Millennium Yellow ones about 4 years ago...at a time when no one offered anything other than white ones. So either contact Speed Hut directly or find one of their retailers. Speed Hut MAY do a one-off kit for you, but if they do, you can bet it won't be cheap. If they do, you'll like their product. It is back-lit so the colored face is displayed day and night.
