Gauge backlighting color
« on: July 01, 2012, 04:58:35 PM »

So I'm looking at all the gauges on my CUSE6 and thinking to myself that they would be sooo much cooler looking if the backlightnig was a nice shade of blue to match the rest of the bike. Does anyone know if the color of the backlighting is dictated by the color of the bulb (p/n 67454-04) or are the bulbs clear and the gauges are "tinted" to give you the color??? :nixweiss:

I see that per the manuals the speedo and tach are light by LED's and are "not serviceable". Meaning when the LED goes you're expected to buy a new gauge. This begs the next question does any body know of a place that can take the stock gauges and change the backlighting?

I know IRON CROSS can do the radio backlight mod.

I suppose I could go with aftermarket gauges, but I do like the look of the stock ones.

No nothing about this company - Bluegauges - Custom Backlighting for your LED Gauge Cluster & More but it is the first thing that comes up on a google search for blue harley-davidson gauges.
