SilverGTV8

I was going to install yesterday, but I only had one scotch lock and needed 2[&:]


Yeah it is a little bigger and longer then a chapstick tube. Fits real nice where I put it.

Thanks, I try to do the cleanest install as possible, I hate wires and stuff showing.

I got it from HERE, cost like 90 bucks. The site has a write up on how to install it on 99-04 mustangs. I went with the Silver body (duh) and red leds.

I had a small Autometer light in my honda (no Rice bowl for me) and I like this light much better.

raptor is the way to go!
rick is a really good guy to boot. he got me the black backordered one i couldn't wait for

damn! silver looks much better than i thought it would have.

are those the reverse glow gauges? if so, w/ or w/out the relay switch?

Nope no indiglo's. They are just silver face overlays. Look good during the day. Dissapointed at how they look when lit up. The light blows through the tach face makeing a checker board pattern and the numbers get fuzzy if the dash light is up to high. The HVAC overlay doesn't get bright enough though!.

Somthing like that what what I'm looking for. I cant see spending 300 dollars on a Tach and Shiftlight when I already have a good looking tach in the dash! I bet its brighter than a standard shift light. Is it easy to see durring the day time? Also how bad was the drilling, cuz that part is gonna hurt .

Yeah it's real bright during the day, I'll find out how it is at night later today. Red and Blue are the best colors for a visual stimulus. It is much brighter then the yellow shift light I had in my Honda.

yeah i noticed that when looking at pics over the internet...some brands had that problems some don't.

do they wire straight to the headlight **** or do they have a relay?

sorry to hear you are not 100% satisfied and hope i don't have that problem with the reverse glows. ill let everyone know if the reverse glows do that also.

i think the silver overlays look good during the day though

No they don't light up. You remove the factory overlay and install the new ones in it's place (for my application) That's it. no wiring or anything. It uses the factory dash lights.

I like them during the day, just not a fan of them at night. I might try a set of UPRs later this year but I don't want to end up with the samething[:@]
