Default Anyone have pics of their Reverse Glow gauges installed?

So I'm actually thinking about getting a set of reverse glow gauges.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7949610305&catego ry=43952

I see those things all over Ebay and they're actually pretty cheap, but I'm very picky about these things and I'm curious as to what they look like installed already. If anyone has any pics, it would be very helpful in me making my decision.

Also, those of you that have them installed, what was the installation process like? I know with some of the gauge kits out there, you dont even have to remove your needles. The gauges just slide over the stock gauges and you're all set. They also say that you should never hook up the gauges to your stock dimmer switch. Has anyone actually ever done that to see what happens?

Thanks for any help you guys (and gals) can give.

yeah I had those too on my parts car, I really didnt like them that much. I especially didnt like how the idiot lights were surrounded by open circles, instead of integrated into the new gauge face. So you have to keep the stock faces behind them.

here's a pic with them unlit so you can see what I mean:



I agree with JAWS though, I do like my Shark Racing ones better. But Im gonna be swapping them for silver and red Bros gauges which hopefully I'll like even better.

Huh? :ermm: What do you mean the idiot lights were surrounded by small circles?

Also, where are you getting your Bros gauges from? Do you have a link?

look in the picture I posted up there, of them unlit. There are circles cut out instead of idiot lights. I hate how it looks, but some people dont mind it.

Bros gauges Im getting from kspec.com.
