    Speedhut Gauges

    All of the gauges have the white back light and red needle lighting except the clock? Or did I miss something in the wiring

    I was also on the Speedhut website and as i was adding a clock i too noticed the hands do not illuminate at night..........A chat window opened with speedhut and they confirmed non of their clocks have hands that illuminate at night and they do not anticipate doing any that do in the near future. Not helpful i know but the question has been asked and answered.

    Certainly don't understand why they don't illuminate, looks a little ridiculous but at least I didn't mess up the wiring! Thanks!

    I also didn’t like that they don’t light up so my solution was not to use it. Rather I used a oil temp gauge from FFR, since I have a clock on my phone.

    I did the same, although I didn't know about the non-illumination issue. I thought the temp gauge was more important than a clock anyway. I still have the clock gauge in a box, never used.

    I bought my gauges from Speedhut too, but didn't get the clock. Glad I didn't Everything has a clock on it nowadays anyway.
