I have posted the DIY instructions for the RGB LED dash light conversion, and will be posting the guage facia instructions SOON!

PS. I will also be offering a kit with all the parts and more detailed instructions for the full dash mod, both LED lights and Guage Facias for a low cost of $80.

They can also be fully installed, at an additional cost of $80 for those who don't know how to do it, or just couldnt be bothered.

Cheers for that mate..I'l try it in the next week or so. Just a quick q where did you mount your switch? I havn't looked at the setup behind the dash but would it be possible to have it switch colour when the mode is changed?

Will take some picks of where i mounted the switch ( near the stearing colum - the drop down tray). And yes its very possible to have an extra LED and resistor near or on the switch as well, wouldnt require much at all, just postitioning the led in a smart spot for the switch (depends on what switch you get as well)

PS: Thanks for the Thanks! LOL!!

That's awesome, Now I'm hanging out for the gauge face instructions (only got a L2 cluster). Finally, there's going to be a cheap (yet good looking) way to ditch the green lights.

Thanks a mint.

my only comment would bw to go through your doc & fix up the spelling, theres far too much "soldiering" & not enough soldering in it...

Isprewell,


Where did you get your LEDs from and what was the cost?

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..
