Yep, rmcallis. Dusk, early morning or when the sun is in/out on a dark day with the lights on & dash lit, is when the gauges are hard to read. The numbers appear black-on-almost white background when the lights aren't on, which is very easy to see. But when the lights are on, the numbers are...

Has anyone switched out the original gauge faces to something more colorful or easier to read? My 2010 gauges are hard to read in the daytime (speed particularly) and are just blah looking compared to what you get in a Ford truck today.

Yes, it is sold. Sorry, haven't been the site for a while.

Has anyone retrofitted their bulbs in a Gen 2 ST? I think the Gen 2 STs (mine is a 2010 STA) have the CAN-Bus system, but am not positive. I am looking to change my tail, stop, signal and side marker bulbs to LEDs, and am leaning toward Lumen from CARid. Not sure if I need a load resistor or...
