Red guages instead of green/blue?

[robpettengill3]

Has anyone done this yet? Pics?

[GooberMT]

lunchbox did in his srt4. he removed that green film and added red leds

[[DJ]Tomski]

i got my blue ones from byvampdesign.com (vampofvegas on here). he also offers red ones as well as some other colors. maybe u can try that?

i could be wrong but just putting red led's in the green film'd cluster could just make a big mess. red and green opposite sides of color spectrum.

speaking of fucking blue leds i've had nothing but problems after problems with bulbs burning out in my cluster and it pissing me off.. i've tried many different leds only to eventually have them all prematurly burn out on me...

[SNOOPALOOP]

Yep, can be done, but from lunchbox's mouth.. it's a pain in the ass

I put just red leds in with the green film.............its alittle dim but the redline shows up and the needles are fine. I dont have a problem with it. Ill prob change it out later but i really dont wanna mess with sanding the film off

[robpettengill3]

did this lunchbox guy do a writeup or anything, or can you link him to this thread?

thanks

Yea I sell them. To get the red to show through it, you have to either A. Sand it down or B. Use some nail polish remover and a Qtip. Read up on the Subaru forums because they deal w/ the same thing. They have to remove some of the film off the back of their gauges.

No, but I had someone send me a picture but its been so long ago. They never told me what method they used. I told him to check out NAOSIC(what ever that Subaru forum is called) and they have a step by step on removing the film.

Vamp, any pictures of the Red kit? I've check out your site and every pic is of Blue. I'm not sure if I want to do red until I've seen it. I'm afraid red will be a bit of an issue with the "red line" on the tach and the needles.
