I really want to get some indiglo gauges in my max, is it really worth it. Is it that bad of a project to do? I was wondering if it is really hard to do, but does it look sweet at night

 

not hard to do at all... i suggest you get the reverse indiglo. i love mine and it only took about 3 hours... but thats only cause i had the spare time and wanted to make sure i did it right. i used super glue.. with a high heat tolerance... and make sure you get it good in the middle by the needle so your needles wont stick. just dont get it on the needle..

 

Yup, i forgot to do that and now my needles stick. It only took me 45 minutes though.

 

Does this help?

I agree with 95BlackMax, I got regular Indiglos first, they were bad bright & almost blinding on a road with no street lights, and 2 months later, the speedo just wouldn't light up, Reversed is the way to go, I've been in there so many times, I can do it in 10 minutes, BEAT THAT!

 

Skoodaddy-

I have to say that your max is one of the few (non-black) ones that I have seen that look good with altezzas. Looks good.

 

I have to say that I agree with you I like them on white max's, I like them on red max's, but most other colors don't compliment them very well, I have seen the Gen 2 Altezza's on a Max and they look tight at night, they are all LED, but in the daytime, they look a litle funky, but thank you for the compliment, I hope you voted when you were on my site!

 

I say get the indiglo gauges. Not too tough to install and they look very good at night. I always get compliments on mine.

 

Hey, I noticed you have a '95 Max. Get the "superwhite" indiglos like I did from ProCarParts! These are much better looking than the blue/green indiglos. The white faces and lettering are much better also. These light up like a white indiglo at night. Very sweet! I like these much better than the reverse! IMHO, I don't like the lettering on the reverse.

 

Cheston is sometimes a Godsend...I followed those directions with mine. 45 mins i'm telling you. But yeah, I agree that you should take at least 2 hours...

 

Man... Nice red max Skoodaddy. I would like mine to look like that. The mesh looks nice. How did you do the grill like that?

 

i installed my reverse indiglo gauges today and when i was going sliding over the indiglo gauge over the stock gauge i had to force it over teh needle i think tahts what caused it to make the end of the black part of the needle get stuck...what can i do to fix the rough edge around the needle?

 

I had this problem.
usually the clearance is pretty good for the "black part". however, the middle and top part of the needle usually does not have enough clearance. so maybe you didn't stick part of your faceplate enough to the bottom. suggest take out the gauge again and check for clearance for that "black part", move the needle around a bit and make sure stick the face plate good and flat (make sure put the tape closer to the center, at least that's where my problem was).

 

I've had to go back in a mess with them a few times. I'm probably down to 30 minutes. But now they're acting up. Maybe it's time to switch to reverse indys.
