    You can just do it yourself. You can buy the bulbs and just plug them in. not sure where in Aus you'd get them but Ebay seems to a god place to start. here's an example in NZ im sure you can get these in aussie pretty easy LED Blue Dash Kit For Commodore vt vx for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand

    Phreddy on this forum does them as well but you would have to arrange it with him next time he is in the area. Its not terribly difficult to do yourself just time consuming requires basic soldering skills.

    They look crap in my opinion. cheap and dodgy way to do it you'll end up with hot spots everywhere

    the clusters i have seen have looked very nice, there has been a couple with hot spots i have seen but thinking i just might have a go on the climate control first to see hows it goes?

    cheers for the quick replies

    Yeah have a look through that first thread i posted plenty of info in there. The cluster is probably the hardest to do properly, as extra LED's are needed to spread the light evenly. Also file down the heads of the LED's is spreads the light much better and reduces hot spots.

    If u havent read already man the climate control unit cant really b done with out havin a green tiinge 2 the colour u choose. Blue does filter through the green better but looks tacky against the other parts of the dash and u can notice the colour differences. the LCD screen u can change no worries tho.
