Is this just the way you cut them or how it sits in the frame?? Also try blacking out the parts of the back sides of the gauges where the light is not supposed to be, maybe that will illuminate the needed areas more?

Just a thought

you guys have to take a look at the original face, they u will understand why the light wont come through properly even if you put 1000W reflector behind it.

i printed onto a sticker then pre-cutted, nice on daylight, **** at night cos its blocking the illumination everywhere, evenly:






a quality aftermarket face, same material as the original white s2/rs2 face with German TUV certificate:


and the back side of it, now u will see why this one is nice with illumination:




I did try:
Original CQ
S2 plasma (S2_Boo version)
Original S2
White cheap sticker
AG off white face
Both with normal bulbs and smg LED

Default Thats true

I was just trying to figure out his problem because I will have the same one. I would get the avant aftermarket gauges but I need MPH not km/h.

You should hook up a boost gauge to match
