so i recently got a new set of MD clarity ultras to replace my old MD V1's that were broken- but my new gauges are not bright enough (for me at least)

they're awesome at night/when it's cloudly and look great...but i guess the FL sun is too intense, so i'm considering other options. they are mounted in a clock dash pod, and my car is tinted to the darkest legal around here and i don't really want to move them since i don't have the factory clock...

so does anyone know what gauges would be the brightest/easiest to read in bright sunlight?- matching the STi cluster would be nice, but not a big issue at this point

can anyone point me towards some possible options for EGT/BOOST/OIL pressure? (no i can't afford defi)

check out the defi gauges, there are some that look exactly like the STI cluster

here is a youtube of some defi

Please learn to read......^^^

Have you tried Prosport gauges? They're a little cheaper..also Ebay has some gauges that have orange too. I'm just not sure if I would trust those readings.

glowshift from ebay?
same thing as prosport, just a bit on the cheaper side

there are many people that use prosport gauges and they work great, others dont like them and have problems
guess its kind of a hit or miss

Doesnt look like you have battery voltage there.

i give up...going with DEFI

anyone have any opinions on what is brighter/cleaner looking in bright sun (i live in FL)- the white/blue/or amber illumination? i'm open to using whatever color- leaning maybe towards blue or white...i guess the BF series? the ones that require the control box...

i figure that my engine is worth a small investment, considering i will soon be upgrading to a 20G/injectors/pump/tune
