MR single DIN gauges
anyone knows what type of bulbs is used in the MR 1-din gauges?

Kevindanger: my A/C console lights up in cool white (see photo attached previously).. and during the day, the background of both clusters (triple gauges & A/C) have the same color..
US-spec Evos have different A/C setup.. do you think the lights differ too?
srv2790: a photo would help mate!

No way... The bulbs in the triple gauge cluster are really easy to get to. Just take off your din cover then 2 screws for the gauge cluster. There is most likely some covers over the bulbs, just take them off, and you will have white gauges.
You can also get white gauge insert for the mains. Check ebay maybe. I have seen them on these boards also.

GS: I'm planning a move to A.D. with my Evo and Q7 later this month. Have a ton of questions but some basic ones regarding inspections / emission requirements... if you get this post, kindly send me a pm or email rfaruqi1@yahoo.com. Send me your contact phone and email so I we can chat. I've also owned 2 other Audis in the past and there is lots to talk about.
thanks!

Well.. being an ex-Audi driver i'm not used to having multi-colour dashboards.. (Amber for the mains, white for the A/C console & yellow for the triple meter kit)
