Gauges were ok, but he had to sand out the orange, so it's not the numbers and letters are not sharp. I'm considering getting a new gauge overlay.

I thought that sounded kind of weird. My 0-20 led is dim.

Sorry, my pollen allergies are killing me. I'm sneezing and have itchy eyes. What I meant was since he sanded the orange off the numbers and letters, when the LED's shine through them, the numbers are not as sharp, cuz he went over each number and line with the sander.

Polarg B1 Hybrids are good, too. Very white with the slightest hint of blue. Unlike PIAA, where they just coat the bulb with blue paint, Polargs bulbs are made of blue glass, so you won't chip them when installing/uninstalling.

You can try spraying a very thin coat of silver or chrome spray paint on the bulbs. But be careful if you try to remove the paint. Like I said, PIAA's just paint the blue on the bulb, so whatever you use to remove the spray paint will also remove the blue. The other thing is, if you spray too much paint on wedge bulbs, their light output will be diminished. They're only like 1/4 as powerful as the turn signals.
