It's not as cool as Harv's Colorado engine block (or Colorado Lawn Mower), but I really like it.

As for lighting - against the better judgement of a lot of people on this board, I bought some PIAA SuperWhite bulbs from Bavarian Autosport. The light is more white/blue than yellow, and I really like it. I know a lot of people say that they get too hot and will melt things, but I don't turn them up to "full power" when I use them. I've had them in the car for a few months now. I'll let you know if I see melt marks when I pull the old gauges for the swap.
