Im sure there are a number of you that have done this modd before... i ran out of LED's and i need to throw in about 8 more. or so... anyway... id be happy to write-up a DIY for those interested, if any1 wants. i'll post more pics when im all done. oh and BTW its black... then when you turn the key they appear (like in the New TL's) and the new Lexus IS, black face... then blue

 

nice idea, but the lighting looks very uneven.

 

im interested in this, but i would like EVERYTHING to be blue. also, are the lighting uneven? it seems so. reply please! very nice lookin by the way.

 

yeah, it is uneven, like i said i ran out of LED's. tomorrow i gotta get some more. i think i need around 20 SMALL LED's total. i only used about 12 for this setup. i'll obviously add some more when i get some time. it took me HOURS!

 

I like! Definitely do a write up, I am interested....anyway of doing all of the other ones as well? Gauge pods, radio?? The red and blue look great, a little orange in there just for contrast, nice!!

 

haha yeah it was alot more work then i thought it was going to be! but i plan on doing the radio and other gauges. (i checked out the others and thier WAY easier. it was not a bulb you replace. you have to block out the yellow lighting and put in SMALL blue LED's with VERY limited space. then wire it to the ignition. i'll do a writeup when i get some more time. (probably when i add more LED's) that way i can take pics of the installation

 

good stuff...

 

very nicely done~ Not my style~ but looks good

 

dude, trust me i say this, you need about 50 small surfaced mount leds. you should be using PLCC or PLCC2 packaging. the light is very uneven. i hope you're not using the stock gauge faces. they have an amber film on the back that will cut down light, and change the hue.

 

looking good

 

When you get it done please post a few pictures of the dash head on if you can.

 

Hmm i dunno i like the stock orange. I had the same color in my BMW. My friends passat had the blue gauges and it messed with my eyes at night. Def. a time consuming mod, i give you props for going through with it.

 

i hate, absolutely HATE the orange lighting, write this up plz, could use a cheap project for the winter break. blue looks awesome

 

I hate orange 2 post a DIY and let us know were we can purchase the LED and amount needed. Keep up the good work.

 

I would very much appreciate the write up DIY. I currently have blue interior LEDs under the dash. They are activated by a switch next to the TCS. This would match them great. Thanks in advance

 

this looks really hot. I love the blue, will go great w/ the blue paint

 

yes i am intersted as well for a complete swap for blue leds. Do a write up very soon so we can have a winter project completed before spring. Thanks

 

would match my alpine hu perfectly.
