durr.. i'm guessing it's an '05...

btw.. green is definitely a color you don't see often.... props for you to do it. it sweetly matches with the headunit's buttons too.

that's the eclipse avn, right?

no steering controls = 2005 tC

That looks really nice. What color is your tC? Do you have any plans to include a green footwell kit or maybe a green underbody to bring the color outside the car?

I like how the buttons on your screen match the conversion. Very nice looking

It definitely looks good! You need to get some green LEDs for your dome light(s) to really set it off. (Or do you already and those are the map lights being shown?) When I do mine, I also want to do the LEDs in the doors. Good job! :clap: :clap:

Looks great! I'm also curious as to what head unit that is.

sonuva_____... that was my idea... oh well, time to revise.. and yes, I was going to do it because of the AVN-5435's button colors.

Thankfully I'm doing other off the wall things that will make it much different.

Didn't think I was going to like it, but that looks awesome. Definately nice to see something other than red or blue (even though I am planning on doing red). Very nice job.

That's what I wanted! but I want the cubby hole light and needles on the gauges to be white. What bulbs/leds did you get? How much did the whole mod cost? Know any places that might do the conversion for me?

LC-LED.com for the LED's

White needles = a PITA.

All LED's came from lcled.com. I stripped the needles of their orange paint with nail polish remover and recoated the bottom only with testors reflective green paint. You would never guess they didn't come this way. The head is an Eclipse AVN 5435. I'll try to get better pics later

I see a lot of threads on guys doing this, but never any information on which LED to get. I would like to try this, but not sure which LED to purchase. Any hints?

It looks real good.

how many LEDs should i purchase?

gauges 14, (15 if you have auto)

center console, 12

but i normally just buy 30 total.. that way you have a few leftovers in case something happens, or you could use them for other lights... (i.e. i changed my engine immobilizer light to blue, instead of that red)
