*Update*
Hmm.. The only things as far as WannabeGT4's are I'm looking for a much brighter light. And as far as color, I don't want it to be quite that blue, I want more of a bluish white, like what CelicaZR's looks like. ?So with those preferances I must ask... for a bright bright blueish white look, should I go with bulbs or LEDs? ?AND also is there anything I should or could do to the gauge panel itself to make the light shine through brighter and non-yellowish? -Old- Alright, so I was planning on making my Gauge with the speedometer etc look better by putting in some new bulbs. I got White 194 LEDs but they didn't work (still don't know why). So then I returned them and got white Xenon 194 (clear blue colored bulb) bulbs. Anywho, they were installed and work, but my numbers and whatnot on my gauge are still that ****ty yellowish color.. I'm going for a bright crisp white or bright crisp blue...  That's pretty much it right there, it's a tiny bit brighter in person... My question is, what should I do to get the effec I'm looking for? Differen't bulbs? Or perhaps keep the ones I just got and do some sort of painting or something? Any ideas and suggestions would be great, thank you. //Enigma This post has been edited by Pulse_of_Enigma: May 2, 2006 - 2:21 PM -------------------- |
