Their position is the gauges are not defective. The solution in their mindset is to reduce the speedometer lighting to the low level of the gauge bucket. How is that for a quality product?

When you purchase instruments would you not expect the lighting levels to be the same between the units? Maybe that is an assumption I should not have made.

Other than the poor lighting issue I think the units work just fine. They certainly are not as slick as Haneline or Classic but then they cost half as much.

I am not trying to bash the heck of Dolphin but rather make others aware of this issue so they will not be disappointed with their selection as I am.
