Default Sun faded Livorsi gauges??

All my gauge work & seem accurate, just the needles are no longer orange. Any options or just replace them all???

Also some of them have cloudy glass faces will the "headlight restore" stuff work on them?? any one try this before?

Livorsi has a good reputation for restoring gauges. Much less than replacing. Contact them and see what they think.

I had Livorsi replace all my gauges white bezels with the SS bezels. In the process the lens were all replaced and the speedo was rebuilt/resealed, along with replacing the faded orange needle. Over the course of a few yrs, it has faded again. The prices were really good.
