Yes, you have valid points, Unity303! I applaud you as well on your work in scanning the original stock overlay. I took mine & did away with all the stock orange paint on mine. Took it down to 'clear' & put it UNDER my custom one made by Jason.. UNFORTUNATLY, the one Jason made me, he used a different FONT for the numbers & letters & now they (stock & jasons) dont quite match up, making it appear overall blurry. I need him or somone to take his & change the fonts & their respective positions & change them to YOUR fonts & I bet it'll look perfect then.... So if any photoshopper wants a challange... PM me & I have a PS project for you.. which would end up being quite simple as just a change of font & positions.... thanks to all who read this.. Good luck to all who creat these masterpieces. They All look great & I am jealous!!! jh

 

i would like to chime in and say how absolutely jealous I am that i dont know how to do this... If anyone with photoshop skillz wants to make a couple of bucks let me know thanks!

 

omg thats super sweet man!

 

The picture under the RPM gauge has me in it, lol. I'm the head sittng right on top of the white thing.

Also, Jimmbomb, I don't really have time to work on a bunch of photoshop jobs, but I could possibly do one for you if you have pictures laid out.

Edit: I could probably do a couple, but I can't set a deadline for having it done... so if anybody's willing to be patient with me I wouldn't mind doing 4 or 5...

 

i never actually read the 1st post. seems very simple. gunna hafta try it but unfortunetly i dont have a color printer hooked up yet. time to go to my parents :D

 

All I have to say is wow. Thats an amazing way to make the gauge cluster really pop. Fricken Sweet!

 

awesome!

 

i did it. havent seen it at night yet though. just a couple hours more

 

Lets see day & nite pics, Whispazzzzz........ cool!!! jh

 

right now i'm at work but i can take pics tomorrow.
i started everything at home then i had to come to work so i finished while on duty and snuck out to the car to re-installed :D

 

Whenever you're ready, Whispazzzzzzz................... dont bogart them pictures!... jh

 

I havent gotten one during the day but here's one using my phone...



I put the cruise light on just for you guys to see what it looks like with blue leds. it looks fine, shines through just everything else

And just for fun, heres my new sig i made last night for another forum:

 

did u do ur radio too? or do uhave a premium

 

i have an avic-d3

 

NICE JOB!!!!! !Keep it up!!... jh

 

what color? and pics?

 

good thing about the d3 is that you can match the lights to whatever color you want. in the settings menu you can manually adjust the colors until you find the blue that matches exactly to the leds.
i'll get some new pics

 

i did my gauges!! haha

I put RAMONES pics in there cuz they kick ___!!

here's a pic of them installed

 

That so totally f-ing rocks.

Where can I learn how to remove and re-install the gauge cluster? I gotta do this.

 

it's not that bad

all u gotta do is:

1) take off the dash part by just pulling it straight out.
2) unscrew the 4 screws holding the gauge cluster in place
3) pull out the cluster and unhook the electrical components
4) pop off the clear plastic with the hooks on the side (you'll see them)
5) unscrew the 8 screws on the back
6) pop off the needles gently with a flat screwdriver
7) take everything off and replace replace the gauge
pop the needles in not too hard
9) put it all together again
and that's it


it's pretty easy

all i gotta do now is change up the LEDs
