    Guages

    So I’m getting tired of the same old dull red dash lights. Do you guys have any suggestions as to where I could find some cool aftermarket gauges?

      Most of us have good taste, we don't like indiglo gauges too much

        I actually would be interested in seeing some form of (albeit really complicated) mod that would light up only the numbers and needles in the same red illumination... I think it'd look sick.

          Two reds, a blue, and a green.

              Get some of those naked lady gauge overlays off ebay.de. That'd be nice.

                Let me help you instead of just talking shit like the peanut gallery above. There are a few guys over on a 911 porsche board (starts w/ pelican...) that replaced the light bulbs with fiber optic lighting. It look amazing, not rice. Was like being in a new audi. It was extemely in depth but very cool.

                  I'll sell my soul to someone who can put an S2000 gauge cluster in my E30 and have it all work. I've seen it done in Hondas, but I do believe it is one of the coolest clusters I've ever seen.

                      Has anyone used the #194 LED lights (they come in different colors etc...) in place of the 3-watt lamps in their cluster?
