Now get working on the dials, factory headunit etc. :P haha
Nah, just kidding, nice work boys! The dials are fairly easy, from my knowledge the dials have LED's with 'coloured condoms' on them, simply remove the green condoms, colour them in with the texta colour of your choice and you're set to goOr just replace the lights with coloured ones.
Good write up..I am now tempted to do this lol![]()
Thanks guys, I'll have a look at doing the headunit in the next few days![]()
By the way guys ill be adding all the controll lights soon (climate control, shift selector, window switches etc

I am seriously not trying to take the pi$$ now, but WHY?
do u have a vid of ur hidden shift light in action? the vid on the skyline looks dull and i wonder how it goes wen the dash lights r all on at the same time? so curious how urs turn out with lights on and off?

Milo is the one that came up with this idea, the guys in the YouTube video from the best of my understanding used his idea...
Here is a link to see how it looks VY Commodore Tacho Shiftlight - YouTube
Note that it would look better in person and be more red than pink
Hope that helps
yeah i watched that vid but id have 2 say urs does look better than his tho, i know in person tells the real story but urs looks as if the red is clashing with the blue causing it 2 b that purple/pinky colour u mentioned? interesting none the less man its given me some ideas on somthing we can improve on 4 guys if they r interested going this far.

Hey mate.
Good tut.
Is there any reason not to change to white? The lenses arent tinted or anything like that are they? Pretty keen to do it.
