Show them off & if you want to state who did it! ;)

EDIT: Ok....maybe I should have made it clear in the first post...I don't want to see "led sellers" products in this thread =/ there are already threads out there like that. This thread is meant for the SL people to show their OWN gauges not gauges that they have made for others. Thank you.


Mine (done by Garage) blue & sky blue:











The other option I was debating on was this (I wonder why :D):



I searched a lil and didn't find a topic already made (hope i'm not blind lol)

Mine are backlit with separate boards mounted right behind the needles. This is the same way I do color changing led swaps, only on my cluster they are all red instead of two colors. The way I wire them, partially to isolate the circuit a bit from the other leds, makes them on any time the lights are, so they are independent of the dimmer. It looks so cool that way it is typically the only way I do them.
