Just another VT Pride & Joy

Nice VT mate, hope to see it at a QLD cruise one day.

They look like they are 16's you have on there.

I used to be a Reddo boy, grew up there and remember spending many a friday and saturday night out on Anzac.

Yes, good old Anzac Ave. Redcliffes’s own illegal drag strip. Wouldn’t be able to afford the 2 – 3 tanks of fuel you would chew each night now days. The cops have busted it up so many times now. There used to be very fast cars that would cruise and race on Anzac on Friday nights at about 2am Saturday morning. All gone now, but there is still a few people out on Thursday, Friday, Saturday nights and the Sunday afternoon cruise, mainly the younger ones that haven’t lost their licence yet or that haven’t experienced Cookie or any of Redcliffe’s finest.

Finally I put the LSD in and got my new exhaust system. The exhaust is quieter now which is what I was after. I'll put up another sound file as soon as the exhaust system settles in and carbons up a little.

I love the front end... The tungsten has gotta be one of my favorite colours, I like the dash lights.
All up, very nice car dude :thumbsup:

I haven't seen a shop offer this service. I have seen a guy on Ebay selling switches and components that he has already changed to blue. You could try that. I don't remember seeing a instrument cluster though.

What MCD rating did you use for your blue LEDs... and what did you do to keep
the red part in the heater controls without the Blue light overpowering it?

Once again, that monaro conversion looks smooth!

Cheers mate.

I can't remember but I think I used 5mm 8000mcd on the dash cluster. The air con/heater controls may have been a mix. I did it a while ago and am having trouble remembering.

For the Heater control I glued in a piece of ice cream container down the middle, and used a clear 3mm led on the red side. If you where to pull it apart you would think it looks dodgy but its very effective.

I am actually planing to redo the dash as I got a triple window cluster now that has the stock lights. There was a few floors in the dash pictured which I'm planning on correcting.
