Nice or R I C E?
Well I did it, i bought and installed a set of reverse indiglo guages for the Iroc. I must say they are a vast improvement over the dull lighting that was there. What does everyone think?

Not really a fan of the indiglo gauges. The bright center really turns me off from them, if just the numbers and needle lit up I'd like them a whole lot more.
yeah, MPH is not for some people (i.e. the rest of the world). I like them, but if you could change anything, I'd do away with bright centers. Everything else is awesome.
So how hard would it be now to make the arrows light up? Where did you get these?

How hard was the install? What kind of lights are used, LED? Kinda like the looks of them better than plain old White faced gauges.

Thanx, the odometer is of course in Kilometers per hour and yes its accurate.

Not for me. I'm an avid "keep it clean, keep it stock" looking.
But whatever floats you're needle.
And you mean spedometer.
how does the high beam look when it shines thru? and how about the other lights. i dont have that light in the center of my dash under the vents could you wire it to the hvac and have the same effect?

MAN I wish they had them for the 1989 cars in 245 km/h
I been waiting for that since the 4th gens have had them. They would go good with my autometer C2 guages .
You happen to know off hand if they had them for the 89's ?
LOOKS HOT !

I have seen different styles of indiglo for the 90 -92 guages, some just green or blue regular indiglo and the reverse indiglo style like mine. Again E bay is a good place to look.
