      Dark gauge faces.

      Has anyone else noticed, in the 1st gen aveos atleast, that the stock gauge faces are sometimes to dark to see? I drive a few country roads, and in atleast one area every time i go through i am unable to see the upper part of my gauges. I wear prescription sunglasses while I drive, but can see just fine in a poorly lit room with them on, so doubt they are part of it.

      I am also wondering if anyone who has installed the white gauge faces has noticed a difference in seeing them without the backlight in poor lighting? This will tell me if it is worth changing them. I am quite worried about damaging my gauges and not a fan of removing the needles to install new faces. But if it's a worthwhile benefit, I will take the chance.

      You mean like the needles and numbers are too dark with the back-lighting off during the day? or a glare on the cluster makes it hard to read?
