pics of blue leds

hey guys, hows it goin
finally got all the blue leds in behind my guages and just thought id throw some pics up. i put em in on the front 2 door lights too and that looks pretty decent too. only problem is a bit too much concentration on the water temp needle and right around 25 mph. the redline area on the tach doesnt really show either, but oh well
sorry if the pics are kinda dark, i had em up all the way and dash looked like it was glowing
finally got the clock workin again too

the bright spots are from the leds having bad light angles. if you want the gauges blue like that your best bet is to use some good blue bulbs otherwise you will have to try finding wide angle leds. looks pretty good though.

i kinda figured itd do this but i was sick of green and i just didnt wanna deal with fading bulbs. i dont really mind all that much though. at least its blue though

one thing you gotta watch out for, throw the turn signal on and it looks hideous, i wonder if i can find em for those too

the only bad thing about the turn signals is i think those are actually colored green on the gauge. i'm going to try scraping it off sometime cause i absolutly hate the green.

Looks good, are you planning on doing any other parts of the dash in led? I think the keyring light looks really great with a blue led light.

thats a good idea with the keyring, didnt really think of that
i want to change all the climate control bulbs, but those are pretty hard to find. right now im gonna concentrate on getttin map lights and the dome done.
