Great write up Phil. Maybe color match the gauge with the dash, that would be sick.

I'll leave the thread here for a bit so people can see and move it to the DIY soon.

Yea I wanna get matching colors, I'm thinking about doing my whole instrument panel and gauge lights in blue or maybe green.. The reddish color is too dull... Where would I get the led or bulbs for this... Ecs?

phil try www.superbrightleds.com just take out the bulb on the gauge and then put it into the site and get the led in red to have it match the rest of the interior.
