Ive been looking around for some new gauges. Preferably backlit. Ive seen some Reverse Halo Gauges, and they look just about awesome. Anyone know where I can find some of these?

Yep, ebay is a good place for these. I personally dig the older style like 2fst4u has... with the even sized halo rings.

Here's a pic of my setup.

Do you guys leave the needles stock when you do this??

Naich, did you paint the trim inside of the gauge cluster to match your other interior pieces or is that something else special?

I have the intelliglow blue needle kit. It actually makes the needles purple. It looks pretty cool with the guages.

And yeah, I bought an aluminum guage bezel off ebay, painted it burgandy metallic to match the rest of my interior, and actually cut off the stock guage bezel with a dremmel and glued on the new bezel in its place (so there is no black plastic showing behind the bezel.)

I have a question though.... When I looked on ebay, the ones I saw are reversed gauges..... like the RPM and the MPH ones are switched..... Is that possible???? And how would I install it?????

Ive never seen those, the ones Im looking for are white during the day time, and at night theyre blue and orange...or some other cool combo of colors

Each of the overlays is individually cut, so they probably installed the wrong one on the wrong spot. You shouldn't have to worry about that, if you have half a brain. I prefer the Halo 1's. They have rings around all of the gauges, not just the tach and speedo.

Also, if you don't find what you want... look on speedhut.com for guages. That's where I picked mine up from - they're not reversed, however, the options they give you, there's more than enough to work with. They are also friendly, and can customize your guages even further than the "stock" setup.

The site says 99-03, but thats not going to make a difference since Ive got an 04 right? Its just 1 year.

I just bought some reverse glow gauges. I was wondering, do I have to replace any of the bulbs, because in the picture of what I bought there is blue and red in the gauges? :huh: :pimp: :pimp: , yes smoker smily!

Most likely, no. From my speedhut guages, I didn't need to replace anything, just mount the new guage faces overtop, and hook them up with the adaptor that came with.
