I dont know if this question has been asked before or EVEN if this is the right board.... Anyway..

Im in the mist of wiring up Autometer guages in my car and I bought the "regular" ones... that light up yellow (in the backround). I was wondering since my dash lights up red (firebird=red dash) could I change the color of the autometer guages to red to match the dash or am I asking for trouble?

I don't know what series gauges you got but my autometer trans temp guages, procomp i think, has a replaceable light bulb. Seems to me it'd be just a matter of swapping the light bulb.

 

yeah its just a bulb or led inside the guage. you can attemp to open and change it, thats up to you

 

yeah..i was opting for autometer guages... I still have to order the guages so WHEN I buy the guages AND take them apart to see if I can change the color I'll post info...

Nothing really has to be taken apart to change the bulb. It's like the rest of the bulbs in the guage cluster.

 

thanks for the pic 3gc. Are those just regular 194 bulbs???

Dan

 

They look it but it dosn't say 194 on it. I bet a 194 bulb would work though.
