I love this guy's gauges

I've messaged him, but he hasn't replied yet... and I'm incredibly impatient. lol So, does anybody know what he did? Thanks for any info.

They're reverse glow gauges. Search on eBay and you'll find em for like $30 i think.

Re: I love this guy's gauges

I guess I was thinking he may have added LED's or something also. What about the needles? Will they be that bright or do you think there has beed a mod to them?

Re: I love this guy's gauges

Those are reverse glow gauges but unlike the one in the link they a silver not white a.k.a "euro".
I have been going back a forth between the white and the silver trying to pick not many people have the silver, wish the guy was better at taking pictures.
--edit--
Never mind better pic at the bottom.

Re: I love this guy's gauges

do they have them so only the lettering glows and not the rest of the gauge face?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...=STRK:MEWAX:IT
will this work?

of course i would need a 145 cluster so this could be a lot more expensive than $30

Re: I love this guy's gauges

if you can steal a 145 gauge from another cluster all you have to do is plug it in.
im not sure why people dont offer the speedometer separately but its truly that easy

Re: I love this guy's gauges

Do they make these gauges for the dual MPH/KPH gauges? the one with the vertical needle that has two ends?

Yes and No, Yes the berlinetta camaro did have digital gauges stock but the one i believe he was talk about was an aftermarket add on.
91Project, the gauges I believe you came across on here was most likely Al Hasse gauges. I recommend PMing him and asking where he sent his, if you'd like to have the same. Here is a quick picture of his.

Re: I love this guy's gauges

I looked and couldn't find any for an 83-89. Too bad. However it did look like the 90-92's might work for an 83' that or I have a 90-92 gauge cluster in my 83.
