like so?

 

Yeah kinda, I am actually going to leave the needles red and make the numbers blue. maybe put white up in the dome so I got the whole americana thing going! I ordered like 10 of them from digi for like 9$. I have not took the truck apart yet so I am not sure what the lights are under the center console.

 

Kinda like this:

 

thats a good look how did you do it? how long did it take?

 

took about an hour. pulled the cluster, again, and changed the LEDs to white for the numbers, stripped the needles of the orange and painted the backsides white, and then put blue LEDs behind them. All the idiot lights are white, high beams are still blue, turn signals are blue, and changed the gas light to red not yellow.

 

i cant wait to do mine.. i've done this to my scion its pretty the same, gonna do blue and red.. reverse lcd.. still not sure if i should do a two tone color and color changing needle..

 

I want to do this setup too! I have read and understand how to change the LEDs but how do you get the needles blue???

 

i scuffed off the orange on the back of the needles. repainted the backs white, and then ran a blue led under the needles.

 

ok...what kind of paint did you use?

 

to take off the paint i used nail polish remover ..comes rights off

 

just a normal white paint. like model car paint or something similar.

 

thanks guys! ill post pics after i try this mod

 

trying to find the exact type of led's to use... mentioned 3.5 by 2.8mm but i'm not finding them on digikey... anybody help me out with a link?

 

Yea same here if someone could just post the link of where to buy the led's I'm sure I could figure out how to do it
