Default Progress - LED gauge lights installed and working (Pics)

I bought the LED gauge light kit - here is a link to the YouTube instructions etc...

Installed (still on the bench, tach not in yet...)









Pretty easy to install when you have your dash torn down to this





I like them.....I'm sure I'll just set them to blue and leave them alone (comes with a remote control...!)

Thought I'd share!

Those are cool looking. Are you able to leave in the original white also and are the led lights dimmable like the original lights?

Yes.....but it's an LED white....not quite the "vintage" look...
This picture doesn't show it well - but it really is white...

I might have to get one of those. I like the red and it seems a lot brighter than stock, which is nice.

They look great. Had blue LED's in my dash and switched them to white - blue was too hard on the old eyes. A lot of eye strain.
