Hey, well i finally got all the bulbs in i ordered, and also the climate control (Thanks to WannabeGT4 on the fantastic job)... Thought id throw some pics out here and tell me what you think. They sent me the wrong front turn bulbs, so these are only temporary. The dome lights arent shown, but they are a faint blue also. Very calm looking.


-climate control-

-climate/clock/radio-

-entireinterior-

-sidemarkers/lowbeams-

front pic of car, cant really see the turns

Well tell me what you think.

which part? i had WannabeGT4 make the climate for me, cuz im soldering impared...and then it took me like 45 minutes to install the gauges, and then clock was like 5 minutes, and then the front turns took a few days to make...

Awesome. Glad you like the climate control. It looks alot better in real life than it does in that pic. Here is the picture I took of it. I think it's a little closer to the real thing:

lol actually snap it was all directly plugged in like normal... no tapping, just some soldering... The stereo is ok, ive had it for awile now, and it does its job... yea snap i was thinking about adding some red bulbs to the back of the guages, cuz it kinda leaks through... and it would be cool to have the needles and odometer be red...havent done it yet though.

This pic. is done off my crapy camera. So it doesn't look to good. Anyways this is without my White LED bulbs and with stock white bulbs. Got my LEDs coming this weekend hopefully.

i like that...see i have the reverse glow guages, so those will stay blue, but i was thinking i could throw some red bulbs in there , and make the odometer and needles red. Ill post pics later tonight when im done...

Ya i think that would look good. the only reason i made mine red with white needles is because all my interior exterior is gonna be red and black.

Awesome. Glad you like the climate control. It looks alot better in real life than it does in that pic. Here is the picture I took of it. I think it's a little closer to the real thing:

Well i just realized that i actually had the little nob on the side turned down practically all the way...thats why it came out so faint. I have it turned down because my guages look funny (due to backlighting) with the nob turned up fully...But the CC still looks great no matter where i have the nob at.

Oh, Ok. I just wanted to make sure people knew that it was brighter than that in case they wanted me to do theirs for them.

I did the CC for him. Each button is individualy backlit. The two bulbs on the left side of the unit that backlight the knobs were replaced with 4 LEDs. Two LEDs in each bulb location angled properly to create as uniform lighting as possible. The bulb that was in the right side of the unit isn't needed since it's only function was for backlighting the re-circulation and AC buttons.

That 3v/3mm/500mcd seems good. I just used what I had lying around. 3v/5mm/5000mcd. It's so bright, I don't really like it.

hey, ummm....i'm not sure. but aren't blue turn signals illegal? i know that i was planning on putting thme on mine, but then a friend told me that i shouldn't because the cops wouldn't like that too much. of course, the law is different in each state....just wondering?
