What color LEDs did you use for the cluster?

My setup probably won’t make much of a difference if any. I had the the time and some extra parts and pieces laying around. So I decided to try something different. I would think getting it away from the heat of the engine compartment would help lower IATs some.

If I remember right, the were the bright white. But for whatever reason they have a blueish tint to them. I was hoping the gauges would match close.

Bright White is usually the 6000k color, which tends to have that blue tint. A true white would be more around 4500k color, but that seems to be a bit rare to find bulbs in that range.

Stopped by the Custom Upholsters shop today to check out my seats and drop off my headliner and visors. Seats are looking bad azz. with the added hip and side bolsters. They are going to be super comfortable and supportive. Getting the headliner and visors covered in the same material.

I have all the headliner trim cleaned and prepped. Ready for primer and paint. Hopefully this color is a good match, from what I have researched it the closet to the factory color.

I went with 17223 SEM paint for my truck, curious how your color match turns out. Mine was a hint lighter than factory in direct lighting, but looks good in normal ambient light

What are you going to do with the headliner?
Did it clean up OK?
Mine has a ring from the PO head..
Must have been a tall dude....
Going to try and clean it and when that fails have it covered.
The power of positive thinking!

Had the headliner redone in the same material as the seats. It was starting to sag some and was coming apart over the windows I hated to tan, makes no sense that the whole interior is graphite, but GM decides to put in a Tan headliner.

Definitely may have to steal your setup for your gauges! I don't know if I want pillar gauges and I only have 2 anyways. Your truck is so nice man!
