The bottom one in the pillar is going to be replace with a WB same as the top guage style but all three of those are nitrous system guages and I want the fuel pressure in big numbers right in front of me so that one will stay the same.....the boost and fuel pressure guages on the the outside are 25yrs old so they are what they are lol

I agree, the blue looks cool, but the scattered gauges would bother me.

You could also make a custom dash insert with matching blue gauges to everything else, which would look much better than the stockers.

I have a 145 cluster here with white overlays and glo thru gauges and i keep pondering whether I really want them or not. haha. threads like these make me think I want them!

I used the leds from superbrightleds.com the dash ones are the high output 6000 lum.
The pillar guages are strictly for the nitrous system so that entire set has a seperate on/off switch and is only needed when I am going to arm the system. The outside fuel pressure guage is for the blower and is a mechanical guage so it has to stay outside but I wanted both fuel pressure guages in my line of sight looking out the windshield. The reason I decided to do the blue in the dash is because I just put in a new Alpine head unit which is blue and the pillar guages were blue also so I decided to make everything else match. I think I am going to leave the interior lights alone but if I do do them I will probably use the led white for a upgrade.

I might move the boost guage to the pillar and switch the nitrous fuel pressure guage to a mechanical and have the fuel pressures side by side now that I think about it hmmmmm.
