check oil, and the one lit up is check engine, they have no color to them, or lettering, just lets the bulb shine through, same with turn signals. it irratating the **** out of me cuz the past few days my check engine light has been coming on for like 2 secs, off for 3 secs, back on, does it for miles. at night, with that dash, it sux ballz.
Does it flash on and off right around 2000rpm? if so, its your EGR and you need to check that out. Mine was doing the same thing, but I just deleted it since my heads dont have provisions for the egr system and voila, no more problem

you sand the paint off the back of the needles. they're painted with white, but it shines orange with the dash lights on. wouldn't look good with this setup, so i took adder's advice and sanded them. worked well. i wanna paint them so they shine red but i'm having trouble finding that type of paint.

I think you were supposed to leave the stock overlays on and then add the new guages on top of the factory ones, that way you would have th missing check engine and turn signals etc.
