#33890, "guage lighting question????"




          

I currently have a white faced dash kit, that lights up blue at night. I also did the Blue HVAC mod. Well, i wanted to get some phantom series guages to match my dash, but i was wondering if anyone knew if the light which illuminates them orange can be changed to blue. Thanks!

i just had indiglo put in last night and on the back of the Dash thingy, there are a bunch of LED's plugged into the back of it...so i imagine its just a matter of replacing the LED there

I got a Autometer Ultra Lite oil pressure gauge with a blue bulb. The stock bulb is a white 161, I replaced it with a blue bulb which is a 194B. Here is a pic. With the El-glow gauges glare it's a faint dim blue, almost hard to see the gauge.



Also I got Autometer Cobalt's. If you can wait a long time for them and got the loot, get these, they are sweet. Here is a pic.



Go good with the HVAC mods which I also got.



Later.

i have all autometer phantom gauges, autometer does make blue covers for the clear bulb, the part number is 3207. it comes with 3 covers. if you dont wanna use the covers, go to a ricer store, and buy some colored bulbs.
