Should I install the indiglow gauges

I just brought a six color indiglow gauge from Ebay, should I install it or leave it the way it is. Do you guys like it or do you think it's stupid? 99 maxima SE

I personally don't like them... if anything, my friend has some reverse indiglo, and those seem to be a little more subtle, while still being cool. I've got the SE gauges, and they suit me fine, but if I were to do anything, I'd change the bulbs for the backlighting to red or something.
If you've got the time, try installing them and see how YOU like them . If not... back to e-bay they go .

i love mine. They are adjustable so if i get sick of them, i just turn them down. The install is also pretty fun cause you get to rip apart the dash a bit. In the end its your choice.

Not hard just have patients and take your time. Have to cut a wire and splice in the wire for the guages. I used wire taps from Radio Shack, they work great. I have the 2 color indiglos and keep them set on blue, I love them but would rather have reverse indiglos. Too bad they are not available for 98 SEs.

I got my last year and I like them if you got the cheap ones you might have a little prob. installing them cuz they don't have holes in for the screws but I just puched little holes in and screw it in.

It's not hard to do. There is a nice write up on the install on www.maximadriver.com . Personally I like mine a lot, and they look really cool with chrome guage rings.
