Here you go:



I believe there is a way to make the gauges turn on and off with your headlights but I didn't take the time to figure it out.

If you're interested, I'm going to be selling my indiglos soon. I've got a speedo/tach set. I'm switching to all red gauges and switces. Here's a pic of my indiglos dark and lit.





Let me know if you're interested.

How much would you want for those? I have looked on ebay and can only find the one w/out tach.

Here's what I did with mine.
1) I pulled the headlight switch out
2) then crimped on narrow blade connectors to the indiglos (the male connector on both leads)
3) carefully shoved the blade connectors into the wiring loom on the back of the switch, right next to the factory connectors. (a couple of minutes experimenting with a volt meter will tell you which wires to piggy-back.
4) re-install your switch and you're ready to go. Mine indiglos have a dimmer that I mounted on the underside edge of the dash. It's a stretch to reach it, but once it's set, you really don't need to reach it again.

That sounds like a good setup, I have to adjust the needles on my gauges so when I get around to it, I'll hook up my indiglos to the headlights and hopefully it works.

Thanks for the comments everyone!
