    Worth the money or not?

    I know I haven't posted here in a while, I have been in Glacier National Park where I work the summers as a tour guide (the buses I drive are from 1936 which is pretty interesting). Anyway, I have a question about this item that I found on ebay:



    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7916239034&catego ry=33677



    I would like to spruce up my dash gauges, I am planning on buying the chrome rings for around the bezels, but am wondering if these are well made. It appears this would make the gauges have the two tone appearance of the E46 which I would find attractive. The question is whether or not it is a quality peice. Also, I am a bit put off by the fact it says that the background illumination is orange rather than amber. I would only want to buy this if it matches all the other interior illumination, it would just look tacky to have a bunch of amber and then suddenly orange. Anyway, if anyone has seen these or put these in, I would appreciate the feedback.

    I wouldn't buy anything from procar parts.

      I've also heard negative things about procarparts and I'm biased because I like the stock traditional look.

        So, the only objections are the seller, not the product itself. For if it is a quality product, I would try to find it elsewhere. Anyone have any examples of why procarparts is to be avoided? I noticed that while they do have a huge amount of feedback, their percentage of positive feedback is rather low. As for the look, I am just trying to break up the monotony of my interior. My car doesn't have the luxury option or anything like that, so every single surface in my interior is black. It's liking driving around in Darth Vader, so I want to liven up the interior with some alternate colors and textures.

            Stock illumination isn't red, it's amber.

              It's amber on all the BMWs? I could've sworn some of the 5's or 7's had red
