TrickTT Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 If you put a red led in without some kind of reflector, you'll just end up with purple numbers. It took me hours to get mine right, and involved cutting away some of the clear plastic behind the rev counter and building an enclosure to mount a single red led, just to illuminate the redline section.

patrikbrunt Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 that looks awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smellywelshman Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 That really does look good! How difficult would you say it is for somone who aint too auto electrically minded? I can wire a house up, but auto schematics just look like someones been sick all over the page to me!! I'd really like to do this as I've a couple of bulbs out and I might as well do them all while the dash is off. Anyone know of somewhere where one may purchase said LEDs?

Just take your time - no point rushin anything on a supra Hmm, 4 hours seems reasonable. Did you just follow the instructions from the web? (I forget the guys name, but I think he's a member here and he has a webpage with some 'how to' details on it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mk47 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 is it just a case of removing the old leds and soldering the new ones in their place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
