really stupid question but if i just wanted to use the blue (2 leg) LEDS in my vt dash would i be able to just LED the globe holders or do i need the resistors and wires still..

sorry if its a simple thing but i cant remember same as i got told i would need 360 degree LEDS so i dont get bright and dull spots..

depends on wat part of the dash some u can some u cant....

I have one question.

What did you do about the green plastic filter that is located underneath the PCB?

Wouldn't this still give you a greenish ting to your RGB leds?

I'm pulling my instrument cluster apart even further and removing the green light filter also, then installing cycling RGB leds in. (lighting effect that 3 mobile uses for their logo)

As i do my mod I will post up some pics and details of my progress.

Cheers thanks for the post in the first place.

Simon.

Probably gets lightly sanded off. I have seen lots of people do it that way.
