BTW, you need to be VERY careful when disassembling this. . .and soldiering this. . .and reassembling this. . .
Lots of little things you can do wrong, and then, it gets expensive
And then, since I can't leave well enough alone, did the ASR and foglight switch modifications also. Replaced the original bulbs w/7000 blue LEDs. Will have pictures of that later. basically just like the ones on Keliente's site here. . . http://www.keliente.com/switches.htm
Had flash on. . .
Bright little buggars ehh?
Package as it stands currently. . .more to come!
I have no life.
After posting this on a local board last night, had a friend hit me up to do his 99 TA tonight. Did the odo/trip meter swapout in about 70-80 minutes start to finish! TAs are SOOOO much easier than Camaros because of the dash setup!

Excuse me for my ignorance with the camaro guages ... but didnt they have a "film" behind to give the orange glow? or is that only with the T/A? If i am anywhere near correct could you post up on how you removed the film? i read that replacing the bulb wont help. Cluster looks sick though man!

ElanorSS, took me about 2 hours start to finish for my Camaro having not done it before. The gauges for the TA/Firebirds pops out easier over the column.
Gun5, ALOT of finageling(screwing around w/the fitment and custom cutting a bracket to hold the stuff together). Made a post about it some time ago. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...hlight=humount
Ehatcher, no film. Orange LEDs w/a piece of frosted plexi. Did a friends T/A last night and had same.

Duffster, do you have LEDS in your gauges?
