Re: Post you "in the seat" shots!

details on your dash man. are those just L.E.Ds you replaced the stock lights with? or something else? did you just use the Pep Boys L.E.D bulbs or did you actually put legit LEDs in?

looks killer! i want to do that in mine

Re: Post you "in the seat" shots!

take the....uhhh...cluster cover off and theirs a metal plate, its a reflector for the stock bulbs. thats wheir you tape the led strips to, and adjust as needed. I still need to adjust the speedo side as you can see but the tach side is perfect and looks ow so sweet. Let me look for some more pics....

-and while-est I search....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DibsFeI5Jes

Re: Post you "in the seat" shots!

Are you looking for stuff like this? lol

My 145mph cluster will be here tomorrow thanks to the FedEx man, so i'm excited to change it up a bit, but here's my current situation:


Red LED backlighting through stock bulb sockets, an Aeroforce Interceptor scan gauge, and an AEM wideband analog gauge:
