Default VDO boost gauge install ... anyone done this ?

I can't seem to find a VDO gauge with a white needle, but the price ($25) looks very favourable next to the Omori ones.

Pics of install (especially backlight would be great).

Default Neither Omori nor VDO needle lights up, so at night it doesn't matter much

in the daylight Omori does look a lot better on S4

Found this pic on AW - this looks like the needle lights up white (or white'ish from what I've read recently)<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/613401.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/613401.phtml</a</li></ul>
