Interesting to see how it will look like on the bike when lit.
Stock illumination is very cool.

I have a broken stock K2 faces I could compare the backside color. And the color where broken off.

Found some clamp rings on Joker Machine (https://jokermachine.com/collections/honda-cb750-parts). Only problem was they had been discontinued. I lucked out, guy there found a set of black rings and sold them to me. Installed the rings, checked to make sure the new bulbs lit and the needles spin using a drill. Installed the gauges on the bike, I like the way they look.
