About the dash I want to do the same but it's very difficult - you must change all the tiny leds one by one with the ones of your colour preference. But I hate this red lighting of the dash, blue would be so much better (and much my black light gauges hehe) If someone more into this stuff want to be a volunteer and try to make a diy then I would try it.

Before my rx8, i had a celica. I have changed the stock dash and cluster gauge color which involved soldering tiny LEDs and it was successful. wanted to know if any of you guys done it and have a pictures of it.
Thanks for all your help. I saw what he did and it was great. The LEDs that he used were a little bigger than the one i used for my celica. How many LEDs do you guys think i need in order to change the dash and cluster gauge.
Mazurfer....off topic question....Where did you get the rx8 image with blinking lights at the buttom of you post?
Bunso_Rx8, if you finally do this it would be nice to share some info or write a small diy with some photos. I really want to get rid of this red lighting.

Don't mean to be an @ss, but I can't tell you anything other than I figured out a way to do it. It's not hard, but a lot of people got pissed(not at me) as everyone started to have them. I was in pretty early, so I kept it when others went a different direction. So............I don't think I will devulge........sorry.
BUT............if I ever pull the dash and change all the LED's, I will for sure do a DIY as I've been wanting to do that for a long time.

Both Bunso_Rx8 and Mazurfer it would be great to make a DIY for this, I am not so much experienced working with leds and I wouldn't try this without a direction from someone.
