Amber out, blue in...

This will look even better one my new gauge face arrives (nudge nudge)

Oh man, those gauges look great in blue. I've seen a couple already, and every time I do, it makes me smile.

here's the completed project













you can get LEDs from this guy http://stores.ebay.com/HKJE-Led-Lamp-Center look for the PLCC-2 SMT leds. Although, if you've never soldered before, I really recommend you find someone who can, preferably someone with SMT experience. (I knew that class would come in handy )

How Many LED's Did It Take? And Is It Brite I Heard They Are Dim When You Replace The LED's

[Lvbitwiz]

I used 15 3 for the multi display, 6 for the speedo, 2 for each gauge, I left the other indicators stock. As for dimness, yes, the tach, gas and temp were dim due to the orange in the gauge face, but that's been swapped out so now it's just fine.

LOL at the Transformers gauge back replacement. Blue looks pretty cool none-the-less.

My harshest critic gave it a "Daddy, that's hot!" of course, he's 5

[surfcitylocal]

Very nice. I wish Scion had heard our pleas for better color choices on the dash gauges. Heck, even Ford gives you a color choice in some of their cars.

Does look a lot better than stock though. Nice job.

Oops! forgot to post the link to the DIY that I used!

Hey where you get your faceplate from? I did my LED's but as you know the orange face plate was not changeable. Thanks for the info!
