Backlighting for Baron Gauges

Postby pickup » Sat Jun 11, 2005 9:37 pm

I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the engine lights for the Beechcraft Baron so the lights are illuminated at night. The one like oil pressure CHT, EGT. etc.I tried using the 2002 gauges in 2004 and they work alright but they also show big black rings about twice the size of the gauge for each gauge and I can't get them out. I have all the gauges illuminated and the light on the panel turned way down. Now if I can get these 2004 engine gauges lit it will look pretty realistic as I have downloaded another panel and extensively modified it. Thankyou for any help on this.

Thankyou for your help on the backlighting problem. The Queen Air gauges fixed my problem. Sorry I have been so long getting back but my monitor burned out and I just got things going again today. Thanks again.
