They look good. What color lighting are you going with?

My vote would be for RED LEDs to match the halo

I have red LEDs in it and IDK if I like how it lights up... Like the whole overlay glows instead of just the numbers...It didnt move and theres no way it could shift any, so I dont know why its off..

Just take a good look at those top tabs I was mentioning. Do a little trim and you should be good to go..

Could you take some pics of the gauges lit up with the red LED's, because i was thinking of doing the same thing, but if you say it doesn't look good I'd like to see.

Doesn't look as red as I have seen others (with the same overlays)... I noticed the foglight switch is the same color, is it just the camera?

Maybe? IDK Its red in person, and its red on my computer since I have LED screen lol

But like the whole gauge glows.. It does kinda have a neat effect.. At first I didnt like how it lit up but now I kinda do... I am going to get some different LEDs in there to light it up as well..

BTW I fixed it today.. I shaved off the edge that made it wrinkle and I pushed the bezel over so there wasnt such a gap..
