Re: [DML] Speed hut guages & Ball joints

["dmcchaser" <dmcchaser@xxxxxxxx>]

I'm also installing those gauges, but I have a few experiments I want
to try that will hopefully improve the final product.  I bought the
black faced gauges for a more stock look.  You're right, they do look
better at the edges, at least until you turn them on, then the edges
light up and define the seams...  gotta fix that.  My plan is to
install an overlay over the gauge faces, made from a sheet plastic
called sintra (I think).  Take a look at the gauges in a 2001 Chevy
truck for the look I'm going for.
