looks great man.....these pics made want some real bad... I will be buying some leds very soon

Nice!
Looks good.

How hard was it to do the mirror lights? Do they still dim after so many seconds?

How do you like the blue? Did you ever consider doing it hyper white?

What kit did you go with? Also do you have pics showing the A4 area? What bulb did you use here? Thanks

how hard was it to do the lights in the speedo. did you have to modify anything or was it just a direct replacement

01Z0H6 Mar 25, 2007 01:54 PM

pretty simple... pop off the clear piece.. very carefully remove the factory bulb ( needle nose pliers) put new bulbs in.. Yes, they still dim after closing the door...

I replaced the lights in my gauges a while back to blue and the blue is real bright but my needles are alot dimmer then yours, did you do anything special with the needles to keep they bright like that?

goodrich969 Mar 25, 2007 03:41 PM

looks damn good man.

The Guz Mar 25, 2007 03:44 PM

I should have been more clear when I asked this. My bad. I know where you got them I was just wondering what color did you go with. The blue or white. I have the white kit but I am curious to what the shifter looks like. Also, I have yet to find a good repacement LED to match the color for the fog light switch, the asr switch and the steering wheel controls. Maybe someone can chime in to a finding a replacement color matching LED to match the white kit from led gauges.

I know how he feels. I am 6'1" about 230 lbs.

01Z0H6 Mar 25, 2007 06:43 PM

Did not do anything to the needles...
I went with the blue... The shifter looks exactly like the doors/HL switch.. it is NOT as bright as the guage cluster... But is well lit @ night..

PM Nathan @ LED guages.com... he will make you what you need...

Yes... i am way too big for the back seat.. The things we do for pic's.. :)


The ones for the mirrors are shaped like a vitamin.. "for lack of a better term".. it is the same ones that are in your dome light.. BE VERY EASY removing the lights in your mirror... the brass clips are easy to dis lodge..

Thanks for the comments.. let me know if i can help...

Patience... that is the key grasshoppa...

If you dont mind me asking how long did it take you to receive your order from LEDgauges? I placed an order with them weeks ago and have since not heard a word from them and that includes me trying to contact them via email just to have my emails unanswered?

Ls1CamaroGuy87 Mar 26, 2007 03:33 PM

^^I ordered them on a Thursday, and I think recieved them the next Wednesday
