sorry bout the lousy pics, couldnt hold the camera steady
heres the complete radio with heater ac controls converted.

and heres the start of the guage cluster, i ran out of leds, but will be ordering more and should have it complete in the next week and a half. i can go in and change any of the lights in the dash, to any color available in led's.

That is cool!

The stock color is superior, but the fact that you can change it is nice.

Blue is a bad choice since the human eye has such a difficult time with it, especially at times when we are on rods instead of cones.
Amber is the most legible color in low light - that is why they use it in airliner cockpits and such.

i like the radio and heater, but the gauges maybe you should leave alone. i mean, that blue red thing they got going is pretty hot.

Exactly. Blue also causes eye strain over long periods of time. Looks nice though. Too bad you won't share though. I could do a write up if anyone likes. Done the light swap many times.
