REFLECTOR: Fuel Sight Gauges

[Jim Agnew]

Actually Brett I was the first one that came up with the LED light strips behind the tubing and one good reason is the lights give you evenly spaced markers that make reading the level easier.  In my case the lights are actually about the same as my fuel markings.

>Lighting the gauges is great, but you really don't need to be behind the gauge in my opinion.  I used these LED lights, and I think they look great.  Mine are on a dimmer  so you can get the right amount of lighting day or night.  The 12" light strips nestle into the curve of the Atkinson gauges, so I made a fiberglass cover to hide the back of the strip, and Dave Spano covered it in my interior fabric for me.
