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

 

[legendoflegends]

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

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

 

[legendoflegends]

prelude needles right? but i wonder how to do it

 

[ALoneR]

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

 

[legendoflegends]

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

 

[bboarder711]

NICE cool idea

 

[Octane]

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.

[Kenso]

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

 

[ALoneR]

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

 

[legendoflegends]

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

 

[ALoneR]

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