    Looking for gauges that are easy to read at night.....

    As the title states I'm looking for some gauges that are easy to read at night. Only looking to spend around $200/$300 for Oil Pressure, Oil Temp, Water Temp, and Fuel pressure.

    Size I'd need is 2 5/8". I already have a set of gauges, just looking to upgrade to something I can see at night.


    Thanks all for the recommendations

        ive run the glow gauges and they were ok, really easy to wire lol
        A good LED bulb will help just about any gauge. White faced would be better, those quickcar extremes ^^ are really good

              We always built cars with the ultra-nite gauges and used big LED trailer lights for warning lights. I don't want my driver watching the gauges, I want him watching everything else around him.

              Red light comes on it's oil pressure, shut it off. Yellow light comes on it's water temp, how many laps are left? Never worried about fuel pressure.

              Mount the warning lights low in the interior and they will make the whole interior tub glow, no way to miss it when it happens.

                  I bought a new quick car panel and the ledfoot bulbs, shipping from ledfoot was quick. I'm pretty excited to get the panel installed and check them out.

                      stepper gauges. they flash a red light for your first step of a warning and the whole back light of the gauge changes color and flashes for your second step. cant miss them. I have no idea what my gauges say while im racing just know if one of them flashes.

                          Give Doug at outlaw a call, he will hook you up with the stepper motor gauges. We installed some at the beginning of last season and have never had a problem with them. 800-393-9951.
