I used the stock sight tubes, but covered the tubes with a fluorescent drop 
light tube cut in half. On the top and bottom I installed plumbing style PVC 
caps cut the same way. Protects the sight glasses and I also labeled the 
outside of the flo tubes with the fuel levels in 5 gal increments. I can 
take digital photos if you're really interested
