I like both the red gauge cluster lights but i also like the Indiglo gauges that change 7 different colors at night...if anyone has either of these 2 things which do you like best... The red lights will be a total of 4.50$ and the indiglo gauges are about 30$...any input would be helpful! thanks

I had indiglos in my car, and got sick of them within a couple months. Now I've got the red bulbs in my gauge cluster and I love it.

I have glow gauges and I'm sick of them, but I glued them down so the needles wouldn't stick. Is there anyway to replace the factory faces without buying the whole instrument cluster?

![]() There are my old indiglos. I no longer have any photos of my car with the red bulbs because my computer with those photos crashed, but I'll take tons of pics once my car is done. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

How did you take the glow gauges off and not have ur factory ones look like crap. I took one off and it looks terrible becuase of the glue I used to keep the needles from sticking? |

i too got tired of my indiglo gauges in about a month in my old car. what i intend to go with next time is "reverse indiglo gauges". only the numbers and dashes light up on those. for example

Is it possible to get new factory style gauges or would the whole instrument cluster have to be changed.

He doesn't get what u used to attach the glo gauges to be able to get them off without ruining the gauges from stuck glue or residue.

Since I glued down me glow gauges, if I take them off, the factory ones underneath are pretty much ruined. Is there anyway for me to replace the factory faces without buying the whole instrument cluster? |

I think that you can buy just the tach, speedometer, and other parts, but you'd probably be better off looking for a used entire gauge cluster. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

You probably got painted bulbs, which just have a blue coating on the glass. I had these in my sidemarkers a long time ago, and they faded to a light green within months. What you need to do is get some quality bulbs that have actual blue glass, because those don't fade. ![]() -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

I used to have blue glass and now I have red glass bulbs, so I would still recommend the glass over the covers.

Personally, I like red more. I've had both of those in addition to hyperwhite, and red was my favorite by far. ![]() -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

I'm up in the air at which to get. I guess it depends on the Lotek 3 pod pillar and what I get with those.

when i first changed my guages i did them blue- and i hated it... the next week i changed them to a brighter green than what the factory puts in and i really like that- its almost like they are electro-luminescent looking... and to top it off it matches the rest of the lights in the car... just my 2 cents

Could you post a pic? My car is going for the black/green scheme, and I wanted to do bright green lights. Also, if you post a pic can you post what bulbs they are? I might go to Autozone and get some.

I just finished installing my reverse indiglo gauges today. They didn't come with directions... but i managed to rig it up. Like an idiot, I pulled of my speedometer and rpm needles... All you have to do is drive around with the needles off... stop.... and put them back on pointing at 0. Everything is back to norm... although my speedometer doesn't decel as fast as it should. I'll post some pics within the next few days. I think they look excellent... they are bright blue and really stand out.

try http://www.speedhut.com/ they seem to be the best, at least the most popular.
Hmm, their site seems to be broken, perhaps try later |
