Dan,

Does this apply to 4k's?  Are you sure.  I believe(d) my cars don't have 
backlit guages.  I thought there were two bulbs in the ends of a white
plastic 
rod which goes across the front of the instrument cluster.  On each end
of the 
rod, there is a piece of translucent red plastic molded into it.

And, there are colored gauge faces advertised in the D&W catalog.  I
don't 
want 'em though, 'coz they're in kilos.

Am I totally wrong or what?

Ken
