Red gauges.
okay, so awhile back, i was driving and this guy pulled up to me. I looked to see if it was someone I knew, and I saw red glowing gauges (this is at night time, mind you.) ever since I saw those gauges, I've been meaning to try and find some. does anyone know where I could pick some up, or what?

behind the wheel, the speedo, rpm, fuel, temp, oil, battery, etc. I saw where they're normally green when your turn the lights on, this guy had them red instead. it looked nice.

I think it's an LED bulb of some sorts but I don't really know...sorry. I'll wait and hope for someone else to answer that for you.

I have them. They came stock. Should be something you can get easily. Call a ford dealership and ask them what they are called. And then search around for them

well, one of the white face gauges I looked at said it glowed blue with stock lighting, which made me wonder if I could change the lighting on it.
and trueballer, could you post some pictures of your gauges? |

I have a 2000 mustang. so Turbo, you're saying that if I order the new white gauges, then I can just change out the bulb that comes with them?

no they dont require the stock lights, the gauges run off a different power source with a momentary switch which does not interfere with any of the stock gauges or wiring, the aftermarket gauges have there own lights in them
