I got my reverse glow gauges installed, and they look tight as hell. they are swichable between blue and green at night, but i stick with the blue, looks much bettre imo. Day shot(ignor the water tempgauge, was just reinstalled in the car and hadn't been zeroed out yet Night-blue night-green Swich pannel, first swich turns on the guages, second will be for fog lights when i get around to buying them, and third will be for blue interior lights when i get em. i cracked the damn pannel when drilling the hole for the swiches, but i'll get a new one this week.

To not have it crack drill a smaller hole first then a larger one and so forth, it takes a bit away at a time instead of putting the biggest bit in there and putting to much bit into a solid object. Gotta love woodwork

Gotta love woodwork no, it's the plastic pice under the stero, it only cracked cuz it got caught on the drilbit and riped out of my hand, bending while it pulled away.

Looks pretty good.
But why didn't you wire up the power to the headlight switch instead of a gay switch on the center console? that's got to be a pain in the ass to turn on your lights... and THEN turn on your gauges. Stock, it happens all at once. I'd wire it up if I were you.

I'd wire it up if I were you. i will wire it up like that soon, i just had to go get my sister that night, so i had to finish it as fast as possible. it's not too bad like this, just not as good as stock.
