I don't like the white guages myself. Sorry just my .02 No offense to anyone that owns them though. It's just not my thing.

They have been on and off there before I am interested too. I think someone has used them on here.

Seems a little strange to apply them like window tint, like the description says. However, I don't know enough about it to be real critical. I would like to see some that have been through a good Mid west summer with high heat and high humidity.

I installed them a while back. Not bad for the price. Its a lot cheap then $400 in real gauges. Well see how it does during the summer.

I have seen some posts on these on other boards. Not the best remarks were given about them. Seems some people were having some problems with them and some were disappointed with them.

That is corect I can make guages for 67-72 trucks in any color you want. I dont use full overlays like the ones seen above. My guages are actually painted what ever color you want and the lines are put on after. They are precision cut so it is just the lines aplied to the guage. The numbers are applied to the back of the lens just like the originals. As far as fading in the sun, these are made of the same stuff that is used on out door signs. It doesnt fade.
