i was wondering if the color on the guages can be changed with out buying overlays? i purchased some led's and have a whole bunch left over, is there a layer on the overlay i can maybe take off? any help will be appreciated

 

yes can be changed

 

do you happen to know of any write up on this or link for some info on that?

 

search LEDs and read a few of them.

Good luck

 

With a Trans Am its not as easy as just replacing the lights behind the stock gauges. There is a red film on the back of the gauge overlay that will always make the light appear red. It is possible to remove the red film with lots of patience, time and a little acetone. Once the film is removed you can replace the stock bulbs with what ever color 194 LED you want. I would not recommend using regular LEDs because they will cause hot spots and look like ****. Instead order some new bulbs from http://www.ledgauges.com/ they know which leds work best.

Hope this helps

 

I know of a site, just google "evls1" and this guy changed his whole car setup to blue leds.lots of info there

 

Did anyone find anymore about this? I was wondering the same thing because I was going to change mine and wasn't sure how to get the red off... If anyone knows anything PM me please

 

wouldnt it just be easier to get a guage cluster off of a camaro? but then how would you change the milage to be correct?
