    Finally someone in TX to do the LED gauges, awesome! I might be in the San Antonio area this weekend, still not sure, but are your services still available? Since my warranty ran out this past week, I suppose now is good time to do the swap.

    I changed the shifter color to blue blackshirts....it came out pretty good just wish I would have bought a bulb with 360 degree the one i bought kinda fades toward the parking icon. I still like it better than stock.

    AWESOME, I think those bulbs only come in 120 degree or is it 180.

    Was it plug in play?

    Yea that's the one I was looking at. The cluster is almost the same so it should be almost the same. I read further and it looks like he ordered the same LEDs for the dash and the led he has shown in the pic is for the hvac.

    I thought as much. If you wanna give it a go you can because I won't do it. I was gonna try and have it match the gauges I have.
