Okay so I was thinking earlier "hmmm it would be nice if the numbers on the dash would 'pop' with brightness" and then it occurred to me, what about if it was painted/coated with something that made it glow under ultraviolet light or something similar. It seems like if one could find some small blacklights and manage to install them in the cluster, the white numbers on the speedo would be super visible, and I dont think it woud be difficult to go over any of the other stuff with white, or whatever other color you wanted that would glow.

Or is this not feasable for some reasons I dont know about?

-1982 300D Turbo, 280k miles, ALDA apparently maxxed, fram 8038, 12 lbs boost, non-egr manifolds, W/M injection, 4 brake light mod, Gen II w126 front rotors/calipers, 4-speed swap
In the works: A/W IC, adjust pump, turbo rebuild (w/60 trim comp wheel)
-1980 300SD, 110k, project car. Goal is to get it lookin' like it did on the showroom floor (body and interior wise, not necessarily under the hood )
-1974 240D, FRESH PAINT!!!!!!
