Default Reverse glow gauges?

Where can we get reverse glow gauges, similar to what is in the blue gauge write up? I was looking at these:

However, Procarparts says they don`t sell these anymore. I am looking for something similar.
Thanks!

ebay.. and once you get them, snip off the outer extremities so only the gauges are covered, like so:

Thanks, I saw those, just not too crazy about the big donuts around the guage indicators, just a personal preference. It looks good though.

Yeah I don't like those donut things either. But this one was one of the only options I had for my car, the others looked worse. It really doesn't look too bad at night, and you eventually get used to it. But I get what you're saying.

Did it seem really bright at first? How does it look at night with the other orange lights around the radio and A/c?

They're not that bright, they're just about the right brightness I'd say. This is the only picture I have with them on:



Not the greatest picture, it was taken with my old camera. But hopefully it gives you the idea. If not I can probably take a better one tomorrow for you.

Guys
The only ones I am seeing at the WS6store are these:
http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...3822e665d65384
Are there others?
Are there any available without the donuts around the needles?

I notice in another thread, you were saying they worked about half the time. Have you had problems with them since you bought them? They appear to be the same ones that they are selling on ebay for $20.

The ones with the donuts are cheap priced. The ones you're looking for cost around 120+. At least that's the cheapest I've seen them. They are very hard to find. At another site, someone posted a link where a website was selling at, but that thread is long gone somewhere. I'm looking for the same ones you want, cuz I don't like that donut there either. Just keep searching google and you're bound to find a site that sells them....

I got mine from procarparts without the ring in the middle.



I don't see these on there website anymore, but the 6 color glow gauges look like they are about the same.
