    Hi, and thanks,
    this gauge lights up to a red background,
    I actually made a mistake in ordering this gauge, cause this same gauge (part no: 5903) comes with white led backlight as an option.

    Just few thoughts,
    I have tried new southperformance gauge pod kit, but i like this far better than anything.
    cheers

    Where did you get the gauge, and where did you hook it into? I have a 2012 SEL Tsi, would be interested in doing the same thing.

    hi,
    You can get it online from autometer dealers,
    Look for part no: 5903 and i would suggest white led back light.
    it is about USD 125. and by the way its mechanical.
    cheers
