You can only drive it while it's on the ground. I flew several on my flight simulator 2002. I always crash them though. hard as hell to fly.

here's a daytime shot vs nighttime incase someone wants too see.




the install was simple. just follow the directions from custommaxima's site. i never tried this before ...and i did it under 20 minutes.
just be careful of not breaking the needles.

thx a lot guys, it was actually a pain to install, and on what i did, is if u click the top link for the daytime shot look at the bottom left and right, his is white, i cut those off because i didnt like how the warning items stood out, so i cut those peices out so just the circles are indiglo

and as far as a write up, i just used scisors to cut it, and made sure i did not cut any of the "silver lining" on the back of the guages.

*edit* this is how mine looks during the day:

Who makes these and is there a possibility of contacting them and getting the daytime look improved. I am on the Atkins diet.
