Did my interior in Blue LED's (pics)

Looks great, now all I want to know is can you change the lights that are in the A/C control unit and the headlight contol unit???? I have no idea if it's possible or if they even make an aftermarket bulb for that, but if you can and if they do make some then that would look sweet. How long did it take you to do the needles, and was it a hard task? It looks very <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" />

marc, i have those bulbs down in my shop. the lights in my truck are blue like that. it's pretty cool at night but doesn't put out quite as much light as the stockers. gimme a call one day and we can do your's. i don't have them in my dash, i would like to though, i tried to do it and ended up breaking some of them in the dash. i plan to do the dash ones and the gauges also. as far as the needles i like that a lot. i might just have to pull my needles off and do them like that. <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" />

All the blubs are 194's except the dome light.
As far as the ac and headlight switches.. those are next on the list... ill probally have to take out the stocker and solder in a led...
The needles wernt hard to do... you just have to take some time and get a razor blade and have at em... definitly worth the work...

When you take off the needle there will be 2 layers if paint. The top one is white and under the white is the orange....
Scrape em both off all the way and enjoy...
Becareful with the needles and which way they go back on....

The doors are easy but you have to do alittle modifying. The led bulb is a little wider than a regualr bulb so you have to open up the hole a little bit for them to fit.. nothing major.
The one for the dome is alittle harder cause they dont make the right size bulb. I had to order a festoon and modify my dome light connections to fit the smaller blub. Agian nothin big but takes a little patience to make sure the bulb is in there good and dosent move.
The dome lights needed a little modding too. There is a reflecor inside the dome light houseing for each side. The reflector has like 4 perferations along the side of it and all I did was complete one of the preferations all the way thru so that the reflector could open wider and could fit around the bigger led bulb.
Hope this helps...
