Title: next little project for my vehicle...
Post by: rowleyslims on 24 September 2010, 18:31
so currently i put new led bulbs on my dash so i could see when driving at night. the clock lights work and the left side (light over my speed) work but for some reason my light will not turn on on the right side over my rpm's no matter how many times i rotate the darn thing. any ideas on why thats the only bulb to not light up?


a little on a side note i was wondering if there was a way to upgrade my spedometer to give it a newer/brighter look? ive looked up things like this

but im lookin for something that will brighten the dash up a little more, not just change the face. for example. when i turn my lights on there is a blue glowing coming from the top. is there any way to get this light to come from behind the numbers brightening them up instead of hovering above them? and if not is there any way to make it a little brighter as mine, although i can see just fine, seems a little dim. thanks.

If you add to this the EL foil and Monkey dials (remove overhead bulbs) and you'll get what I was on about to "haribo"
