cobra white gauges

does anyone know where I can get cobra white gauges for my GT? I have to replace my odometer gear but while im in there I want to replace bulbs with the superbrite white bulbs and swap to white cobra gauges. I am looking for the blue light look. If not original cobra gauges atleast something similar but original cobra preferred. I looked at steeda but theyre pic is real small and it cost $150.

If you get 5-way LED's in your stock cluster, the gauges will change to blue. They're green 'cause the stock bulbe give off yellow, mixing with blue to show green. Check out this thread:

You want white-faced gauges rather then Cobra-specific; Cobra speedometers go to 160 while the GT's go to 150. Search for "mustang white gauges" on Google.

I forgot all about the 150-160 issue. damm now what? Its kind of hard to tell what white face gauges come with blue tint unless you see them in person or is stated in the description. I guess ill keep on looking.

BBK Performance White Face Gauge Kits on special at BrothersPerformance.com for Ford Mustang 5.0L 1995

here, these are the exact ones i have in my 95 GT. For being 9.99 and BBK (Speedware) brand, i'd say they are worth it!

Can that be corrected with a Cobra specific VSS?

Not that I know of. The VSS is the same no matter what car you have; the gear on the VSS varies depending on the gears in the rear end. I don't believe you can get a gear that makes that small of a change on the speedometer. I would think you'd need to adjust it in the PCM itself.

im not sure the BBKs are what im looking for because they appear to look blue in the day. I dont think the cobras have blue numbers in the day.
