white gauge inlays
I recently found a great place to purchase white inlays for my gauges. The place is called Duranged Design. It came with Tach, Speedo(optional 145mph), oil presure, Temp, Volts, and fuel. Got it all for 21.00 and that included shipping. Just thought you guys might be interested.

what do you guys think. you can find these at www.durangeddesign.com
They look ok, but I'm not a fan. Our 'vert had white faced gauges when we bought it, and I'm seriously considering going back to stock. I get in my T-Top car and think "oh, that's SO much better!"
Look closely at the needles in that pic. They are stock color. If you DO get the overlays, I recommend coloring your needles orange, red, or some other contrasting color. Not that easy to read white on white at night!

I could see what you mean. But with mine after I installed the inlay I changed the stock bulbs to black lite. Now at nite the niddles stay white and the inlay glows. The transition makes it very easy to read. I just thought it was to much black in the interior.
