Anyone got these? Are they bright??? Last long without going dark.

They're not very bright, but they're effective in full dark... And the one that still works isn't fading or anything. The tach one kicked the bucket quite quickly- I put it down to the fitment. The instructions all say you can't bend the tab on the top, but it's impossible to fit them within an SVS's gauge cluster without bending it quite a lot, even if you cut the inner casing. Also, I don;t see how it's possible to fit them withoiut cutting or removing hte needles (I cut them)

I wouldn't buy them again... But they do look good.
