Conplete Blue LED Dash
The pictures don't do it any favors. All the gauges have blue LED's installed where the regular lights would be. In real life all the shadows are gone and it is much brighter. I looks really cool at night, one guy in the other lane bumped the car in front of him because he was looking at the gauges

Very interesting - I'm thinking about doing something LED to replace the very dark stock gauge lights. Question - the photos you took make it look like the light isn't uniform? I'm betting this is an artifact of the light metering by a relatively cheap camera and in fact the light is pretty uniform to the naked eye? If so - it looks really cool to me :-)

They look great! I had blue LED's in my dash but pulled them out in favor of white because the blue seemed to cause too much eye strain. But they did look cool!
I bought the kit from Josh at Atlanta Speedometer. The lighting part of their business is called Inclusive Lighting. Great people great product.
Check the video... It couldn't be more simple. It's really plug and play!
You're right - it does look easy. Especially when the gauges and cables are all unhooked! How much trouble/effort does it take to get the dash and gauges all accessible? I haven't done this in my car yet, and haven't done it in any car in years...
But the lights and configurability look great - I'm totally sold. Now I just need to determine if I'll do this myself or have someone do it when I get my interior and stereo done...
I don't remember the video, but I did like this kit quite a bit. A year or so ago I called and they didn't have the kit anymore, but if you call them now and they do - please let us know? I replaced my bulbs with a single-color LED and it looks good but I like the idea of changing colors on my dash.
