Do the blue rings illuminate? I swear I saw a posting here somewhere and it said "blue lights" around the guages.

I believe they do, or atleast mine does.

I can't seem to see the light here. What I mean by illuminate is that they actually produce light, not reflect it. An example would be a light bulb behind the blue ring which causes it to illuminate. That would fit the description of "blue lighted rings around the gauges."

NEXT Question is: Can they be illuminated from behind the guages?

NEXT Question is: Can they be illuminated from behind the guages?Sure, it's possible, but would be expensive & require extensive gauge modification.

They do not illuminate, although it would be VERY cool if they did. It would be a pretty major and difficult undertaking for a custom shop to make them light up--I checked with an experienced local customizer. They would have to either cut your gauges up, or at a minimum, drill holes to run the fiber optic/illuminated cable through, in which case it still would not look like a perfect "ring" around the gauges.
