I bought a set off E Bay. Guy said they were new never installed. So he couldnt verify if they work or not.

I took the leads to my battery, they didnt light up that I could notice.

So my question is, are they supposed to light up or create a blue tint then the actual bulbs light it up???

Im not sure if I wasted $15 or got a good deal?

My next question is, if they are indeed dead. Can I still use them and they can light up from the stock bulbs?

at 15 bucks.. you didnt really loose much- might toss some pics up or something? wouldn't hooking it directly to the battery cook it? lol

havent bought a set for my car yet, so im clueless on them

you definitely won't be able to tell in daytime or sunlight -_-

i thought my reverse glow halo gauges didn't work or weren't connected right then realized you just really can't see it in the daylight

always best to test that stuff in a dark room/garage.... i've done that a few times w/ led projects.

WTF!.... *turns lights off* ...ohh!

i dunno.......i got a set off of e-bay and had them professionally installed and im having difficulties with the blue light lighting up on mines too.My needles still light up though but i still havent figured out why the rest of them wont light up.

i have a old 12V 800mah power supply that i just drag into a bathroom with whatever led project. (only room in our house that has a close lightswitch, power outlet and no windows) good for day testing...
