Digital Dash Upgrade
Anyone seen this one from Ecklers? Looks pretty cool.

I have this......they use different colored plastic template (overlays) to change the colors of the LED's. You have to completely disassemble the cluster to install them. Be sure to follow the instructions to the "T". Mine came with 2 different overlays, which I think were to be combined to make the colors I wanted. With both installed, it did not let enough light through at night on the bar graphs. There were no instructions on this, so someday I will have to take it back apart and use only one. I did not get mine from Ecklers.....though I am sure they are the same ones.

Power.. was the job hard to do? Would you recommend it for someone who isnt mechanically inclined?
But I do like the looks of the blue on blue or the red bars. Sort of looks cool.
When I first read the title, I thought it was one of those where you change out the digi dash for analog type gauges. If I had to do that, I would sell my Vette. I absolutely love the digi dash..
