green glow gauges

[chamilton89]

I like them. Looks good with the blue HU. Do you still like them as much as you did? Are these the ones found on ebay for pretty cheap? and how was the install, I want to hear some details about that because I am seriously considering these.

Installed today like I said, took a little while, but I do enjoy the change.

With it turned off, just to show how little (if any) old red shows through

On with the dial turned to the lowest setting

On with the dial turned up all the way

Looks good with the deck

Which site and which ones are those. I want them . . .
did you replace any bulbs or anything? cause i remember getting gauge overlays that were black backround and supposed to be blue but because of the lighting behind the cluster (incandescent yellowish colour) they were green and i was kinda pissed lol. (the ones from blackcatcustom i got for my grand am before i got this car)

the only place i remember seeing those is ebay. i dunno if you have to change bulbs or not. i would imagine so.

how did you change the window buttons? i thought those were molded red plastic

 

[gtcoup]

theyre bulbs with a red film on them. i grabbed some leds, resistors, and a soldering iron for like 15 bucks. the heated seat switch is molded. i turned the whole fog light switch blue it is bad azz. ill post more pics. if u want more info on switchin that up pm me it legit took me like 10 min a switch and i never soldered in my life!

 

[Poil336]

get a spare gauge from a junker and take it apart. The red comes from a paint like film over the backing, i was able to use a combo of paint thinner and and laqure thinner and a q-tip. take your time, make a weak solution and just rub off the red, then you can change the bulbs to LEDS with the right resistors of course. or just get your own film over the newly cleared gauge fronts.

I love how some people restrict themselves because they fear the "ricer" look. My figurin is if you like it, screw every one else. If wanting to take a active role in every aspect for your car is ricer, then I am ricer to the core. My car is a peice of art, and I am the artist!

I don't mind the red gauge lighting.... then again, my floor and the pocket in front of the shifter are lit with red LEDs in my car. Yeah yeah, rice.... but I like it. The thing I do want to do is white face gauges with one of the bezels painted plack... I just don't like the all-one-piece-with-numbers look... I like the look of separated gauges.
