i've recently changed my speedo gauge lights etc to blue using the how to sticky(very helpful-thanks), however, the gauges are not very blue or bright. theyr'e more a pale blue/white.
does anyone know why this could be and how i could get it really bright like yours are on the pictures. i replaced my original bulbs with blue side light bulbs, 194 i think. would led's have been brighter perhaps? thanks. -------------------- imghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n153/LI...KINGy2j/sig.jpg[/img]

I didnt use LED. i've ordered some of the matrix leds now so i'll give them a go. i wish mine came out as good as yours, perhaps i just got some crap bulbs. also, is paint the only way to get your needles red? -------------------- imghttp://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n153/LI...KINGy2j/sig.jpg[/img]
