If I install the indiglo gauges will the gauge needles still light up?

Chill...it's been one day!

Anyway, the indiglos do not light up the needles, the indiglos go around the needles. If you leave the stock bulbs in, those will light up the needles, but you might see them through the indiglos... If you take the bulbs out, the needles will not glow and you won't be able to read your odometer as well.

Are you suggesting that we have some sort of duty to answer your questions???

People will remember your online "personality". Good luck finding answers in the future.

i think the 20 people didnt reply cuz the question you asked made no sense-i was one of them-the indiglo gagues have nothing to do with the needles, theyre just gauge face overlays-if youre talking about the gauge lights,then again the indiglos have nothing to do with those, you can leave em in or take em out-whatever you want to do....

haha... that's funny shiat.

i must admit, i was one of those 20 people that looked at the original posting. first off... i don't have a Solara so i don't know exactly how the needles operate. second... on my 3rd Gen Camry the needles don't light up. it's more of a reflection of the stock bulbs for the gauges.

here's how it looks like with indiglos...



hope that helps cuz i'd rather not kiss ur ass.

try and ask with more detail next time, maybe you'll get a better response. or try your approach again and insult the forum - you got a number of responses that way too.

peace

Thanks for the info,I was just trying to get some info in a hurry before I install them.To those who have them would you recommend just pulling one or all of the bulbs? I've seen that you can remove just one bulb to route the wires through or you can remove all the bulbs

Sounds like its a controller problem just with the indiglos. That's the little black box... power supply. Does it go dimmer only at idle or is it random?
