I don't have pictures, but I can tell you they are very dim.

I have them in my truck, they are not dim at all, very bright. However I wouldn't recommend autometer to anyone, not impressed with the gauges at all.

I forget I put different bulbs in mine and they are green, so the light might be different but I still think they would be pretty bright regularly.

I just finished putting my ultra lites in last week and think they are great day or night. The style matches the dash inlay perfectly. They are plenty bright enough for me at night even with the little green rubbers on the bulbs. Only minor complaint would be the green tinted light doesn't perfectly match the green back light from the stock cluster. I think that can be easily remedied by some creative sharpie work someday if I ever get around to it, tho.

I run Autometer Ultralites and Ultralite II's which are LED's that read thru the gauge and not backlit. The II's are much better in my opinion. I've run Autometer gauges since the 80's and never had a bad experience with one... and I've had dozens and dozens and installed many more in others cars.
