dash lights

[Powell]

i'm in the process of replacing the center cluster of the dash (the tripometer broke from someone previously probably trying to set it back or something) I was wondering if anyone ever tried replaceing the dash lights with colored ones?? i bought some that are the same size but the only problem is really that the old ones are stuck to the plastic plug ins.. i would think i could still get them to work somehow...

I've made some progress, i bought 4 blue lights, one crakced on me, the other three i succesfully attatched to the plug and they work fine =D

[Powell]

if anyone is interested, heres what the blue looks like, it's not complete yet (need to add two more lights and the odometer isn't in yet)

WOW, thats awesome!:big grin: I NEED to know what and where you got the exact bulbs you used to get that look, not dim at all which I thought might be a problem but it is definetely not! Great work! LMK"thumbs up

I've tried the purple bulb idea to make a blue'ish color with the green.... But it is kind of dim. So I decied to remove the green plastic and use actual bright blue bulbs.

Last night I took apart the gauges, heated up the black plastic and removed it from the front of the gauge, then i removed the thin green layer of plastic which makes everything green. This worked for the RPM side, and the other side, battery, fuel level etc....

But my problem is with the speedometer. It seems instead of having a thin green layer sandwhiced in the middle, the green is like part of the black layer on the outside. Hard to explain. Has anyone done this before?

I decided it was impossible to remove the green from the stock gauge on the speedometer. At least I got the side clusters. I'm going to go install it now. I'll post pics.

i can barely tell the difference in the pics from the stock green and the blue maybe its just my computer. but i thought about diong this a while ago, good to see someone tried it.

That is the guy's website that I posted. I had already contacted him and he say's what you see is what you get. If I can only find out who make's them maybe we can talk them into making the turbo one's. As of now he only offer's it for the N/A
