    I finally finished my dash and guage mod and I physically did it all by myself!

    A huge shout out and thanks to TW member Jerez! This is his thread that had got me started

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/lighting/162197-so-cal-led-gauge-swap.html

    He took time out to help me in New Jersey from all the way in California when I ran into some problems.

    This is my complete dash with out putting it all back together. I have a blue background with white needle.

    This is my dash all together and you can actually see how blue it really is. I also have pink blinkers :D
    [​IMG]

    I did mix colors for the odometer with blue and pink
    [​IMG]

    I put pink seat belt and door open signals
    [​IMG]

    Lastly, I ran out of white leds so I have a pink gas gauge needle that doesnt look that bad.

    Took a long time but was worth it.

    Now are you going to put up a detailed how to so that you can avoid having to do that again? I would rather do it myself than pay someone, but haven't come across a good step by step thread.
