    I haven't actually seen those gauges in a car, but I think that they should show up because the light on the bottom side of the cluster hood will light them.

    I have those exact ones. I actually only turn them up halfway, and they're plenty bright. I took out the lights in the cluster...it looks a lot better without them. If you can get a good deal on them, go for it!!! Just be careful when you're installing them...DO NOT TOUCH THE FUEL GAUGE!!!!!!! It fucks it up. My fuel gauge no longer works cause I didn't read till that till AFTER I had installed them, and it was too late....but hey, I always have a full tank of gas!! lol...

    They work on an 86-87, as long as the gas/temp needles swing in. If yours swing out, just go buy an 88-89 cluster. What I did.

    Good price on those, half the cost of procarparts.com

    those ebay glow gauges are very bright. you will hae no problem seeing them at night. i too took all the lights out from the cluster. but i missed 1. it adds the glow-in-the-dark effect. awesome. hook the gauges to your dimmer switch. that way, when lights turn on, so do your gauges.
