I saw a thread on the ClassicOldsmobile site where a guy was having the same problem with the repro gauges for the 442's. He did a detailed thread about how he fixed them. As I recall, he had to paint the insides of the gauge housings a combination of white and light blue to match the factory gauge housings. I think he also changed the bulbs to led style bulbs. Looked nice in the end, but shouldn't be necessary when buying new parts!
