hi guys
ive got silver dials with nasty orange markings n writing when it is illuminated! so i fitted 3 BRIGHT Blue leds, looks wicked but not bright enough coz its a blue light going through the orange bits. basically cant tell exactly wat speed im doing at night!!

so would it be better to get dials with a clear see through markings n writing or dials with blue markings n writing???

thats if these coloured type or dials are available!???

Am I right in thinking you don't have a rev counter?
My Lockwood dials have white figures and the end of the rev counter is yellow, yet mine lights up blue red or whatever colour I like.

The dials are blue, the writing etc is in yellow, they are just regular Lockwood dials.
Do you mean where did I get the dials from? I bought them from Halfords. If you want leds for the backlighting, I can sort you out with them no problem.
