Default Red Mcnord Gauge Overlay
Here are a few teaser pics. I will post more once I get it all back together and will probably be changing the red bulbs out for xenon.

They look nice. You should get some leds instead of bulbs. The leds I have give a nice uniform light with no dead spots.

Can somebody post up pictures of the backside of these overlays, and one of stock as well? These things look awesome, but i refuse to have see through gauges at night.
