I was at the Pittsburgh Auto Show today and I sat in a new GT - it had the IUP and I noticed that the center 4 guages seemed tiny and real hard to read.

The power seat was cranked all the way back and could not be moved up.

My question is - are these guages as hard to read when the seat is in the proper position as they were for me tonight???

Thanks in advance for any input.

Most things are hard to see in the dark. Turn on the MyColor!

I don't have any problems reading the gauges and I have the seat cranked back pretty far.

I get get alot of reflections of the gauges off the chrome rings around the speedo & tach which is sometimes distracting. But if you turn the brightness down it's not unpleasent. But I really love my blue MyColor.

Nah, it's not really an issue. Not nearly as much as some others anyway!(Just don't ask about the Shaker 500)

I wouldn't say they are hard to read, however, I would also say the are not as easy to read, as the last generation.
