Thats where I would keep it, I'd think it'd be the most accurate.

How do you like the look of your C2 gauge when its lit up? I saw one in a speed shop the other day lit up, and it looked a lot cooler than most pictures can show on the net. Do you have any pics?

They were bright, so I got the dimmer switch from autometer, now they look very nice

I took some pics today after putting the blue leds on the cluster, and I dont know why I cant get good pics at night, out of 10 maybe 3 were ok, with or without flash they do look cool when you put just a lil of bright

That looks sweet man. I love that monster tach. Did you just put blue lights behind the factory gauges (no white overlays??) Are there any spots on your stock gauges where the light is kinda dim in a couple spots? Also, can you see your needles and the red part of your tach easily? Where did you get the blue bulbs? Sorry for all of the questions.

I guess its just in the picture that you can see the red on the tach or the needles? Are the bulbs anything special besides being blue 194's?

The bulbs are just blue, nothing special, and the needles, you can see them fine, not as bright as before but brighter than the white and silver overlays, like in this picture , by the way that girl's website is very nice, I follow her instructions on that mod

Cool man, thanks for answering all of my questions. Just one more question about the bulbs They are regular bulbs and not the LED bulbs? I only ask because on her website she talked about the LED bulbs, and you said you followed her website. I'm asking because on my last Camaro I bought blue bulbs from Macewen Motorsports, and up top on the speedo there was a place that was a little more dim that the rest of the cluster, yours look a lot brighter.

Cool, thanks man. I was just kinda bored, so I already went to the parts store and bought some of those bulbs and installed them. I also had a trans am bezel, so I put that on as well. It actually looks kinda cool, because in Camaro's you only usually see the bezel with white gauges, but mine are still black, so it looks kinda stealthy and it matches my black car

I have the stock cluster. I can see them, but I can't just glance down and see where things are at, I have to actually look. They are just blue 194's, I don't think blue LED's would make a difference, so I am just gonna buy the super white LED's.
