Default T/A Blue Gauges

Just to tease some people. All the gauges match in person, not sure why the camera makes them way more cyan and not blue. In person, there is no doubt they're BLUE!

Remember what color gauges Trans Ams have, right?

Thanks!
Nope, no SLP screen. Just a regular Sony 7" flipout screen. The SLP you read above it is my headunit mounting bracket I got from www.humount.com. Owner is very cool and I did the custom engraving ($15 more) so I got SLP illuminated and below it (this doesn't light up) it says "Firehawk #102".

I'm going to post a thread/writeup sometime today. It'll tell you all the parts you'll need to do it.

Mine is actually just a radio. I have a DVD player under my drivers seat (12v auto DVD player). Good part is my DVD player plays DVDs, SVCD, VCD, MPEGS, etc. Just about any file type short of WMV files. I have 420+ music videos on my computer, so just burn them to some DVDs and it's all gravy!
