Can you please edit your original post so all the pics are vertical. When you put the pics side by side it makes the replies all messed up. Thanks

How were you able to change the colors on the Odometer and Menu displays? Is it just back lit?

Straightup BONKERS man...It makes me somewhat regret i decided to go with red in my interior...

I think it may be easier on the eyes if the needles were RED, to contrast the blue...

NICE!!!

I was thinking the same things. Keep the needles red and the outside circles blue. Writeup please!

I like it with the orange there, any more blue and it may be to bright and hard to read.

Since you can change your gauge cluster light. So can you also do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yus1FzYfXHE ( look at the needles at the beginning)

I love that. It's sick.

I don't think I could have it though...My eyes neverfocus right on that color blue. It's very weird. I cansee it fine in the pictures, but in real life....I just can't focus on it.

Anyone else with eye trouble and that color?

Yeah... i really like the way it looks and if it had red needles it would be best for contrast viewing... Could the rings be white (or a true RED)?

I thought someone else did this and their needles broken and needed to be re-seated before they start the car....is this true in this case?
