I think I read somewhere that the gauge lights stay on all the time in the new Mustangs......due to the deep barrel gauges, and making sure you can see them clearly all the time since they are somewhat shaded due to their depth? Standard gauge lighting all the time when headlights are off.....and MY Color at night. Can you owners verify this? Thanks......

This is true. Gauge color is white until you turn your headlights on at which point it changes to green or MyColor.

Do your headlights come on automatically with the wipers?
If you turn on your headlights due to rain can you see the gauges, are they bright enough?

No, headlights are still manual on/manual off. And yes, the gauges are plenty bright enough to see in the rain.

Gauges are white with standard gauge package.
When I test drove it on saturday, i turned on the lights etc,

I couldn't even really tell they were on. (It was sunny out, and you can TOTALLY see the gauges without the lights on) They didn't look like they were on all the time. And they looked white to me

Well that's good the last thing you want is in the rain turn on your headlights and you can no longer see the dash. Great!
