Check out my new cheap and easy alternitive LED gauge cluster mod

I like it a lot, but of course... IT is not gonna be as sick as a real LED cluster job but it is also not gonna take u a few days to do either and u don't have to rip apart your cluster...

Not really a write up needed but...

Basically I bought a pack of 3 LED projectors in the auto section of an auto store(quality is not bad for $10 bucks on sale) and they are on a universal swivel and I can point them where ever I want and make the LED light smaller or bigger. The bad... Not to many places to put them near ur gauges in a max...

I was pretty proud about this easy mod and liked how it came out with the SE's white gauges... It just shined off it so nice and the only bad part was the hot spot from the LEDs being so close. If I could put them further back it would look better, but when you looking at the road. IT looks like 4 perfectly lit blue gauges... Here are some pics in different lighting conditions.

Sorry these pics were taken with my $500 dollar motorola cell phone...lol

Hot spots from the outside?

The color is nice but it'd be better if it was more even throughout the face of the cluster.

ya I agree I wish I could either adjust them more or buy them seperately... That would be cool...
