keeping myself busy

i was bored today, sorry for the bad pics. i tried to make my own "indiglo needle kit". it was somewhat successful, not as bright as i had hoped for (even though i am usuing 8000mcd leds) i think I need a different way to place my LEDs. i also changed that keyhole to a nice blue to match the rest of the car.





any of you guys got the import intelligence indglo needle kit? im curious how they have it set up.

not pictured is the modified ash-tray light. now it glows an errie blue

Whoa! The keyhole looks tight.
How did you do that? I'm just about ready to change my interior to blue. I was wondering though, do you know how to change the light behind the dimmer switch and the cigarette lighter, cause I didn't wanna have everything blue but those. Oh yeah, what kind of led's should I use, and where can I get them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ah Jon the key ring is lookin good!

How'd you do that?

I've been wanting to do something with that lately. Because I have Indiglo's (I always have them on blue, the green looks yucky). Soo, the blue doesnt look good with the green glow on the key ring, ashtray light, and down around the shifter indicator.

Any tips?
