i was just wondering how those $30 indiglo gauges that you see on ebay get their light. do they light up on their own or do they get their light from the 194 bulbs in the back?

i'm wondering this because i just put Polarg's into my gauges, and they're alright, but not spectacular. i think there's a little too much hype about them on this site. how would my gauges look if i kept the Polarg's and put the indiglo gauges in too?

would i have to take my bulbs out? or do they light up on their own?

you put the indiglo guagues over the stock guagues, so no light can get past the indiglo guagues from the polarg bulbs, the only light u will see from the polarg bulbs are from the needles

if you take ur polargs out, than the needles wont light up even tho the indiglo guagues light up.

bulbs also light the odometer and trip numbers

picture can explain everything

here, just indiglos, (just "illumination test", not installed yet)



now indiglo installed, but dimmed as much as possible (so that red color is from gauges bulbs/LEDs)



...and finally all together

Here are mine that i actually just installed two days ago.

No lights just Indiglo....


White LED's and Indiglos....


Just another angle...


They're actually a alot brighter in person, these pics make them look a lil dark. Well i hope these pics help a little
