Gauge face change problems...
Yesterday I changed my gauge faces over to some silver faces as my black ones were flaking.
The new faces look soo much better, but, when I went out for a drive earlier I realised that I was bearly able to see the pointers or gauge faces. Now I remember reading a thread on here somewhere about it but after an hour or so of searching I am still unable to find it. So does anyone know how I can improve the brightness of my gauges?
Thanks in advance

not sure if this will help but i just got my gauges refurbed at nhspeedometer and at the time i inquired about white faces they said no longer available but they said they could supply me with silver though from nr automotive.However the fella i spoke to on the phone warned me that the silver would not be good for lighting as the silkscreening does not allow for light to filter through very well and i would loose my blue led lighting as a result because it would turn to an amber color. Maybe call and speak to someone over at nhspeedometer about it.I spoke kevin i believe which made me decide to keep the black dials.

I found my gauges getting pretty dull in terms of lighting, so picked up this kit from good ol flea bay. I'll keep you posted on the results.
