i asked the same question im goan look aound real hard for black light leds also do u think if u just put a leack light up there if the silver backing of the revers gauges would light up or just the white on the needlesOriginally Posted by frantik

ooo red is gonna look nice Bite, very evo ish i liek the orange like the 2nd gen rx-7's have , also you think thos would be possable with all the rest of the dash lights for the controls and switches , it would look really good on a Lx-i with the blue led's

I ORDERED SOME UV LEDS, FIRST COME FIRST SERVE, I ONLY HAVE 100 COMING.
I ALSO GOT MY 5MM AND 10MM LED CHROME HOLDERS...
I HAVE 100 5MM AND 100 10MM HOLDERS. THE HOLDER CRADLES THE LED IN PLACE, AND THE LED SITS INSIDE OF THE HOLDER PERFECT!

sweet job bro!
I just bought 100 red 10mm led's for my guage cluster project. I will have plenty left over too.![]()
Just finished with this too. I'd imagine I'll do these for you guys for about $30 shipped, but you have to send me your controls etc.
The light protruding from the bottom will shine on your c.d. player and console.

I see you used white leds in the temp slider side. I think someone had mentioned that before too. Hmmm i wonder who that was? lol jk
