Question Does anyone make indiglo gauges that light up red?

I have a black Z with black leather and black mats with a red Z28 logo and I think that glowing red gauges would be awesome>

I haven't seen any. Your best bet is to change your cluster bulbs to red.

Actually I'm 90% sure the T/A guages will not fit, but what I did was change out all my bulbs to red, it was a pain in the *** and they ended up being a little lighter in color than I wanted, I really wanted a DEEP red, but I haven't found good bulbs yet. Blah... also did my shift indicator by just using a red permanante maker, sounds ghetto but matched perfectly - lol.

I saw them for F-Bod's in Jegs a couple of months ago, probably still in the newer ones too. I think they were APC's, not sure though, but they had them in blue and red illumination.

Do like Izod and go to Walmart and get 10 red 194 bulbs for about $16 and swap them out. I have mine in green to match my green car and it looks great. Hope this helps,

Yes the lighter color bulbs look MUCH better (I have blue turn signals and such so I know), the red ones put out a weird almost pinkish hue, but its much better than stock so I'm not complaining, AT ALL. So if you want red, spring for the best bulbs you can find so you don't have to redo it like I will one day when I'm bored and have time.
