Nice! I'm starting to see a lot of people with the same gauges I have, so I kinda wish I did something different like you now.

Brian, any chance of getting more buttons from Speedhut made to match the HVAC controls? Specifically, the cruise, A/C and Defroster buttons...

I wired my gauges in a way that when I turn down the dash lights, my indiglos get brighter. I'm not sure if there's any other way to do it, but I just tapped into the gauge cluster power wire. But anyway, in order for my indiglos to be nice and bright, my other dash lights have to be sorta dim. It would be nice to have the rest of those buttons bright blue like the cluster and HVAC controls.

Anyone else interested?

Hi 2.5mx3/Hank your lightingproblem is quite simple..

The clustercontrolwire you tapped into is the right-one but,the clusterlights is connected from the variable 2-8v to +12 and not ground as usual.
You'r indiglo's now go from 2-8v down to ground
making them shine brighter when the dashlights dimm...

BUT the answer is'nt just to take your indiglo"groundwire" and connecting it to +12v instead,by that you would reverse the polarity on the inverterbox.

what you should do is connect the inverterbox's groundwire to the clustercontrolwire,and the positive one to +12v,but i dont know if the inverterbox can cope with a "floating" ground..

Ask spedhut about it,i have asked them earlier thru their technical questions mail but never got any answer,did'nt bother to phone them cause my english's a bit rusty LOL..

But if you phone them and get an answer i would like to hear it..

I'm interested in the buttons too Hank. I doubt I'll remember to check back here though. Sooo much other stuff in life goin on, (family with health probs etc), and the swap commin up and so on.. If somebody could hit me an email if the buttons are for sale for a limited time or somthin, that would be greatly appreciated. If not, I understand..

I'll definitely do that, Mason... if it ever happens. I may end up contacting SpeedHut myself again to inquire about it. I'll let ya know!

Good to hear from you!
