Default Greddy 60mm gauge Question?

<center><img src="http://www.rx7.com/pics/it-greddy-boostpress-black-tn.jpg"></center><p>Is there anyway to change the background
color of this gauge to match our interior?
Or is the omori the only way to go?

Default Not w/o the possibility of destroying the gauge in the process...

...the color is not in the bulb itself, but there is a green film on the backface of the gauge face that lights up the numbering green.

You'd have to tear apart the gauge, remove the film, replace w/ a red one and put it all back together again.

I've never done it myself, but audimods have taken apart his old 60mm gauge and passed this info on to me awhile back.

I've emailed rev techniques about the possibility of an Omori 60mm boost and EGT gauge that matches the OEM interior lighting similiar to what they've done for the VW crowd. If they get back to me w/ positive news, I'll the word along.

Email them. Maybe they can get you what you want.

Default I've been talking to omori

And they can get a 60mm gauge
with a red needle and the new multicolor feature
that allows you to fine tune the background
to match your interior.
They informed me that we can get these
with a min of 10 orders would anyone be Interested in these?

Default Only if I can get both boost and EGT gauges...

...no way am I paying for only a boost gauge w/ a mismatching EGT gauge to replace both my existing Greddy gauges.
