White FTW!!
The cool thing about the white needles is that during the day they look white to offset the gauges and at night they light up the color of the bulbs/numbers for a different look.
Here's a page I made on our forum. It's a cool little cheat sheet.

I got home today and what did i find in my mailbox! Hell yeah. I will be putting in all the overlays in this weekend. Once that is done my blue interior lighting will be finally complete. EVERYTHING that was once red will now be blue! I even did the steering wheel radio controls and the odometer readout. I cant wait to see everything installed. Ill post up some picks when im all done.

I have installed my overlays with one small issue...well three. The right turn sig is fine with the trucker girl. The left turn sig, however slightly shows the girl, but shows more of the lamp below it...what gives. Also, I cant get that dammed rpm needle to act right. I lined it up and everything, but nothing has worked so far...PITA. Lastly, I just saw the a4 install kit after I installed mine. I simply thought I just had to lay these overlays over the existing ones. There were no instructions on how to install anything but the gauge overlays. Is there a way I can redo the install without messing up the overlays?
I do like the look tho.....makes the car look more bad ***

So put my overlay on last night and put the cluster back in. On the way to work this morning the temp guage was pegged to the left. Oil pressure, voltage, and fuel gauge seemed to be fine. MPH was reading about 10 under what I was actually doing and RPM was maybe 800 higher. This is based on the interceptor read out which was pretty spot on before. Whats the best way to go about adjusting my gauges and get them dialed back in?

??? 1) I just got paid and I am about to order these. What color is this?
Black W/ gray checkers
or
add checkers- gray
color - gray
2) When choosing what to put in place of the rpm and mph...how do I know if it is a previous design (I just want the white CAMARO and Z28)?

Alright man I will warn you its a ************ to swap out the Incandescents to LEDs
on the 93-96 clusters . You have to manually solder on 2-3 strands of copper wire
for each terminal of the LED , which leaves you with pigtails that you solder onto
the connector the LED sits in . VERY time consuming . Heres a list of what bulbs
I used for my full LED swap on my cluster ....
5-Red 5 way LEDs - For Indicators , Check Gauges , Brake , Etc.
5- Amber 5 way LEDs - For Indicators , Low Oil , Service Engine Soon , Etc.
1-Blue 5 way LED - For High Beam Indicator (You can choose any color but make sure its a 5 way)
7 - Cool White WLED-HP6 LEDs - For Cluster backlighting
2- Green WLED-HP6LEDs - For Turn Signal Indicators
If you have any other questions just let me know . Not many people have done
the 93-96 clusters and Ive done quite a few
PS: PM me in you want to know where I got my LEDs from (non sponsor)

1st time with the cheap leds
then I switch to the WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle, more even light output.
