Ultra brite blue dash (pics at last)

[tommo]

Here's a couple of pics of the Cab's dash i got some ultra brite blue led's and soldered them into the bulb holders for the illumination, indicators, heater vents and fuel comp also i put a red one in for the redline and clock.
the effect is pretty good considering it only cost a tenner and the dash still looks original during the day.






i did the wifes car as well and as soon as i reduce the file size ill post a pic.


cheers ian

edited, cause they were too big

Thanks for the comments guys
with a little more work ill position the led's right on the prism's and it will get brighter but the orange needles when they are "parked" dont illuminate as well they should, but you can see them as they move round the scale. i would prefer to fit white ones as the ones on the wifes car show up spot on

see.

ill take one now of them and see what it looks like
