LED conversion is finally complete! Just swapped out the 3mm leds for the HVAC buttons. They were a little more tricky than the plcc's in the gauges, once you get the hang of de-soldering it's cake.



Finally, there is no more trace of amber lights in my car! Now I'm just waiting on my gauge face from Sean at LEDmod. Should be here withing the next couple weeks.



Looks good.
Which gauge face did you go with? I got one from him in February. I did the blue leds and got a gauge face with white markers- not too happy with it during the day. The blue kind of washes out. I want to change the blue to white at the tach, fuel and temp.

Just got my new gauge face from LEDmod. It was expensive, but worth it. The quality is very good, the blue leds look so much better now.

I might switch the gauges to white leds so the needles are more visible, and to add a little contrast.

I love the color but they tried to keep the price down cuz the econ. Is in the bucket. The only bad thing about getting a rs is custom paint is a nono lol. But other then that its coming along great man keep it up.
Also I have a red led conversoin in my car. Looks awesome but white is where its at the guages look cool just don't do the map and dome lights like I did lol.

It's been a few days since I messed with this thing, so I went to full white on the gauges. It still has a hint of blue, I guess from the blue LCDs, needles are much brighter now though.
