Interior LEDs, not gauge cluster

[jrdrew5]

?? did anyone else in this thread do any sanding?

Do they make them in custom colors. Red would probably hurt my eyes .

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Yes they come in cool white, white, warm white, red, green, blue, purple, and yellow

I'm not sure why people want super bright gauge lights. They seem plenty bright enough at night as-is.

red doesnt hurt your eyes it actually is easier on the eyes for long periods at night then blue or white. I dont remember where i learned this but there was a study on the same stuff. The gauges just look better too, its not just the intensity but the color as well. My gauges were a pale orange. Now they are a intense red like a newer car. Definitely makes the vehicle appear newer when riding as a passenger.

Ha, I dont really want them for brightness, I plan on turning them down with the dimmer. I just want them so the gauges glow red instead of that dull orangeish color.

 

[bsbllfit7]

yup and if you want that you can do that! I like to turn them on during the day too. Stock bulbs would show no color or light during the day, with these it lights my gauges red during the day even!

 

[jrdrew5]

anyone sanded the orange coating down or not?

 

[Karnag3_0kc]

I'd be doing it for the brightness. I hate the dull color. Even the eBay ugly gauges are better looking than orange.

You dont have to as long as your going to be using the red Led's.

Where can we get led dome lights or install instructions? My lights internally are shot..

 

[Indian]

There are also dome lights on that site as well.

Thats the things as i said above ill be going with blue, red really isnt my thing.

has anyone tried tenting their gauge cluster with the LED mod done??? would look good IMO if you couldn’t see the gauges at all unless the lights were on. would look damn good in a car with a blacked out interior.

 

[Karnag3_0kc]

The neon colors are giving me a headache.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

So I pulled all of the lights out of the CC and center bezels and they are totally different form the gauge lights. Anyone got a part number on these from superbrightleds.com? It would look stupid if you have red or blue gauge lights but the rest of the lights in the controls are still orange.

 

[Indian]

They are smaller correct? I will have to look at my receipts, and get back to you.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Correct. awesome, thanks!

 

[jrdrew5]

Anyone know how to power the cluster without plugging it back into the car i wanna check all my leds before i put them back in the car(hints the cars not here)
i have 12V+ and ground just need to kno where to put it,

Maybe a little late but oh well. I sanded it down just over the stuff I wanted to show through. If I remember in the morning I'll take a pic of the blue leds in the cluster but just so you know I also used a blue film under the overlay to make sure it wasn't a light blue. I spent $5 on ebay for the blue film and the bulbs from superbrightleds for like $50 shipped.

+1 I sanded down to the orange part on the white numbers, and through it for the red numbers.
