That looks really nice, what kind of bulbs did you use?

SB

 

194 refracters cheap yet effective

 

wow, looks very clean, definitely a more refined look than those stupid teal bulbs. big improvement. glad to see my DIY is coming in handy for so many people =D

 

just a simple change of the light, and it looks so much more clean
honestly if it wasnt for the diys and post, i would have never known about these.

no dark or hot spots
looks like it but its the camera

 

Looks Good.

 

Can you link me to the lights you bought?... LED's right? I wana do the same thing... also I wonder how it will turn out if I put LED's on top instead of just truning them off (or maybe UV?) .. it really bothers me taht you cant see the needle at night.

i currently have the blue LED refractors .. after seeing the white ones.. i am now reconsidering hahah.. i dont what color i should stick with

 

prelude needles right? but i wonder how to do it

 

greekpower was apparently working on a way to put prelude needles on, but honestly i wouldnt try it. you put too much pressure on the needles and they'll never work again, then you gotta fork up $$ for a new cluster. not worth it IMO unless you know what ur doing

 

thats too bad, but im not gonna do it, i dont wanna mess up my whole speedometer

 

NICE cool idea

 

I've installed the same bulbs in my cluster and at first I wasn't too impressed. But I've since realized that if I install the red prelude & civic needles I bought and also sanded off the green tint from the back of the gauge faces, then it will look really hot (ala Volk and Keith).

I just don't know when I'll get up the courage (and find the time) to finally do it. I also worry that I might create hotspotting by removing the shaded areas at the back of the gauge face when I sand off the tint.

 

hrmm yah looks good.

 

 

That looks really good for such a simple mod (vs. the other method of wiring the leds one by one).

 

did you just paint the needles light blue? they look great! way better than i would have imagined... probably only works with the white bulbs, i bet blue needles and any other color bulb would look ugly. nice taste

 

i tried it with different color bulbs, but these came out the best, and its freak'n bright

 

is that carbon fiber trim too? where'd you get that from? ebay?

 

i got it 2 years ago from ebay

 

those are the same refractor bulbs that you used from superbrightleds.com?

 

thats the one

 

special surprise end of the week, maybe tomorrow but make sure you check back

 

LofL - how come your cluster doesn't show what gear you're in? I assume you don't have a stick.
