Here's the pic of my white face gauges with the blue-condomless bulbs.

Wo, that was taken 3 years ago... sorry for the bad quality.

Hmm, you mean like mine?
I custom mod'ed my reverese indiglo's to actually light up BLUE, rather than a faint greenish.

The camera didn't duplicate the color as well, but they light up exactly like VW style. I just need to take out those stock bulbs because they give my gauges that 'halo' effect :eh:

So just pull out cluster and take off the blue condom thing to get amber color? Or do you put like a yellow condom thing?

i agree fully.. and i find it so hard to believe that they do not make black faced reverse indiglos... or at least whites with black markings.. it doesn't seem all that complicated..

Actually, I think the markings are not blue during the day.

I think it has to do with the demand... most people want to UPGRADE from the black face :dunno:
