Abstract: A speedometer display is disclosed having a front, opaque indicator dial upon which are provided numeric and scale mark indication which are constructed of transparent, parallel fiber optic bundles extending transversely through the opaque display. Parallel to and behind the display, a light interrupter plate having a reflective surface adjacent the fiber optic bundles is rotationally attached to the speedometer needle shaft for rotation. Immediately behind and parallel to this interrupter plate is a color filter segment plate having a plurality of color filters which are back illuminated by artificial illumination means. The speedometer marks and numbers corresponding to speeds to the right of a given speedometer needle position are illuminated by reflected ambient light transmitted through the fiber optic bundles and reflected from the interrupter plate.
