Anyone know what electro luminiscent gauges are? What's the difference between them and USDM besides the color? What's so good about them?

Thanks

they are usdm gauges from the 94-96 preludes, they are completely black and invisibile when car is off but they light up neon green when u turn em on..... sexyyyyy

EL gauges are lighted in a similar way to your water temp/fuel gauge. they are green and on 94 -96 ludes. when the car is off, they are black. they are brighter and the needle is also different. this has been discussed tons and there are 2 writeups for installing them

I tried to do a search on "EL" and "electro-luminiscent" but none of the threads said what they were. Thanks though, I bought a 94 VTEC.

I still want to buy some of those guages.
