Indiglo Gauges

I had them on my old 1995 GS, if you do happen to find them for your 1g they will already have the oil boost and gas gauge with them. I actually researched it and found out how they make them its just a simple compound made by copper and zinc sulfate if I remember right, and when electricity hits them it excites the molecules and they emit photons and glow.

Well see what I was thinking about was making some stuff out of it since I know the chemicals used. Like say some real indiglo banners that were full windshield banners. The only problem I ran into was that these chemicals can be bought but only in like 1 gallon amounts. Its kinda like going to Price Club or BJ's and having to buy their huge containers. You'd never be able to use it all. You need just a slight amount just to glaze the surface and a gallon costs 1000 bux so I wasn't going to try it as an experiment and have all that money wasted.

Try nopi. I am pretty sure they make them. I know you can get white face from a dif site but i am pretty sure nopi has them. They are like $100. Oh yea and try Summit. I am almost positive one of these 2 have them. If they dont have them for a talon, say you have an eclipse nt or turbo(whichever one u have) cuz sometimes people dont know that the clusters are the same.

they have white guage faces for any DSM and u get to choose what color your numbers light up. i have them in mine and i would never give them up. he can also do some custom work like etch your name in the face and it lights up with everything else. or he can even do factory logos. its pretty cool.

I've got to go with 92Laser, I ordered some Silver gauges from Blackcat Customs (based out of Canada) w/ Mitsu emblems on them and they are the bomb, they have blue backlight. I also ordered the Blue indiglo needle kit from Importintelligence and they look awsome at night together. The blue backlighting on the gauges look almost like VW stock color (not as deep blue though). I recommend both these companies to anyone on this board, they do great work!! The gauge faces are replacements too, not just inlays.

Mine are really too bright when I put the dimmer all the way up. I usually have them turned way down. People always notice these things. Two nights ago, some guys pulled beside me and were going nuts over all the pretty lights. Here is a couple of pics:
