The other look was better. This look has a hum drum feeling to it but, it's your car. However, I'd like the other setup on my coupe.

I think the all blue is too much. I do like the contrast with the white and blue needles.

What does the METH dash light mean?

You really got into that cluster. Regardless of the color you're the man.

i think im going to go back and add little blue accents to the white to tie it together. looks better when i dim the lights to take the pic.


meth is for methanol tank low indicator. eventhough i dont have the meth setup yet. just in preparation

I have a first gen is the led removal about the same process for the gauge cluster. I haven't tackled a de solder re solder job like that in ages. Got any in process pics.

Anyone know what bulbs are used for the seat warmer buttons. I have one burned out

Anyone wants a close to perfect paint match for the early G grayish/aluminum look interior trim color. Krylon nickel shimmer is near perfect.

Cake can you post a closeup of 1 of the led bulbs and the soldering tip/type of solder you are using. Kinda like to see a size reference of both together. I'm not scared of anything but want to see that if possible. In that main pic you had a multi meter and all kinds of wiring, etc under the dash. Are you working on other mods as well?
