I want to buy indiglo gauges...

I want to buy indiglo gauges and I'm having no luck finding any for my '92 Nissan 240sx. I've found a couple but they don't have the exact same gauges as mine. I only want the white (day) and blue/green (night) I don't want the 6 color thing. Can anyone help me out, and tell me where I can get a hold of some of these. Thanks, greatly appreciate it.

I don't know why you would turn down a six-color set if you could just install them and select the color you want. Then just leave it on that one.

I have an extra gauge cluster if you need one as well. I picked it up to swap out my HUD without researching the actual swap process.

Yeah ebay is great until you have to deal with a deadbeat seller. I did a favor for Frank and ordered a shift boot. The dude is giving me the run around for $10. Thing is he sold close to 500 of the in a dutch auction.

I am going to pull the plug on this deal pretty soon. The boot isn't here yet.

The difference between the muti color and the blue green ones is the control box.

The multi colors usually have no adjustment for briteness and a little membrane switch to select through the colors.

The blue/green ones usually have a switch (that selects blue or green) and a **** for briteness.

I bought mine a while ago and like them. (bought them from a seller on eBay... can't remember the name) I also bought another set for my gf's civic from the same seller. Good service both times.

The guages aren't the same for 89-93(4) - SOHC cars had a different scale for the speedometer (I think it went higher) and a different redline for the tach.

You can see mine installed at

I've also seen some guage faces that were glossy. My friend had these and they sucked - glared in sunlight. I don't know if the seller will tell you, but you don't want glossy ones.

yo for some reason... when i got the indigos it says 115 as my max speed... i have a 91, and requested it from a 89-93.... i also have the old gauges .. they also read 115... many tell me its only suppose to read to 110... how is that possible... ?

Anything's possible - maybe your speedo was switched at some point by a less-than-honest seller to rollback the mileage?

The 91-94 guage cluster definitely read to 110 (last printed number on the scale). 89-90 were, I beleive, 115.

If your tach works than they didn't swap the whole cluster (89-90 tach won't work with DOHC).

We got the boot in the mail finally. It is pretty nice. Frank was happy with it. It matches his car perfectly.

Yeah I don't need to know how fast I am going. I just need to keep it under the speed limit. **** I have to rewire that cruise control. Driving to shops and all over in the car requires it.
