Is it about as bright as the blue color on there and what notch is it on?

brightest setting. definitely bright enough, about as bright as stock i guess. though the red cancels out the green almost all the way. dunno, if you're going for pink, this is definitely the color for you. I did a whole new batch of bulbs. Maybe i'll go out and put those in tonight for a photo.
[edit]
stupid me. I have an auto, and i grabbed a cluster off a manual figuring i wouldnt need the shift indicator.... well, turns out... the harness that hooks up on the left(for at) also controls the doors. when they key's in the ignition, apparently my driver's side door's open, and when it's out, my rear gate is open. lol there goes that plan.

Wait. . . are these going to be in nail polish? Or some kind of paint?
Because I don't know if everyone would want "Deep Passion" colored gauges.

RC spray paint works hella good for lights, like the rc window tint to make smoked-ish type lights. HEHEH I spayed the turn signals on my civic completely dark but left an arrow for which direction the turn sigal was and it was a little lighter so it looked nice

I've tinted clear incandescent bulbs red using that translucent paint that you use when making plastic models (had some left after building a model of the USS Enterprise-D when I was little
).

Heh... I was a bit of a Trekkie when I was little... But that model was the only bit of merchandise I actually had.
My girlfriend's friend is getting married in a few months and she was thinking of playing the TNG theme music at the reception. Now that's scary.
