Nice......looks good!
2nd photo...............better go get them wires out of the way over there by the clutch pedal.

 

That looks awesome. I really like them!!!!

I'm all out of green, so no worries about that.

 

they're all tied back now. the pictures were taken just about as fast as i could get the camera on the tripod after they went on

 

for the record. The reason he got greens was cuz i paid extra to get some green/blue mixed lights and he needed to order green bulbs. m'i right?
so as far an uniqueness goes... hah

 

actually, you're wrong. you both paid extra. The green leds I used on ctrx8 kit were ordered from a personal project of mine that I gave up on.


second, you got blue/green, that will yield a completely different result than all green. So, you'll both have unique setups.

 

those green lights look bitchin'! Swamp thing better look out

 

Have you thought of changing the gauges to a green also, that would make it look alot better when opening the door.

 

After about 1hr of troubleshooting I finally got it installed. The drive side LED set would not turn on! I was thinking that somehow I had screwed up the crimps but I noticed that when I touched the LED board it would flash on then off. After pulling back the electrical tape on rotery rasp's LED board I found the problem. One of the soldered wires had detached and was tapping the LED when the board was moved around. After a 5 minute solder job I had it up and running, had me worried for a minute but it looks nice now I will post pictures this weekend.

 

i believe changing the guage color is a pretty complex project if i remember reading some people wanting a DIY. that and i'm not all that handy so i doubt it's something i'll take on but i'm really digging the green with my NG and that thought process might change after a little bit.

 

unique enough then. couldn't let me have my moment could you?

good enough for me.

 

Sorry about that. I glad you were able to fix it yourself.

can't wait to see some pictures!

 

CTrx8- how about you vacuum everything up tonight and take some nice photos for us. I want to put one in the beginning of the thread.

 

as you wish. i can't hold still long enough for the non-tripod pic from the back to come out clear.

 

I figured as much!

 

I didn't think I'd like the green, but I'm starting to dig it.

 

green looks good. I wish I could see it in person.

 

Hey Rodger,

I got my LED's, but the install instructions you promised are no where to be found. Please advise!

I ordered footwell and trunk LEDs.

Thanks,
Will

 

awesome, look prety cool bro,

 

wow...that green looks pretty wicked. but i would never give up my blues. i'm kind of contemplating making them all blues....hmmmm...there's a new project...

 

Does Jedi have white or blue? Am I too late? I'd like to get white (i think)...

 

Jedi has blue.

 

Blue still available?

 

I've never found any record of anyone actually pulling it off... ive considered attempting it, but I cant risk having the car out of action for that long, and if it was anything but near impossible, i figure someone woulda done it by now. I think you have to pull off every button on the dash, scape off the red coating, and change the white backlights to blue or... green... as for the tach... god only knows whats behind that thing.
if anyone can do this, PM me.

 

Oh yeah.......................check this:

After that thread then do a search on threads started by "Lurch519". if the link above doesn't have the guages, one of his other threads does.

I've been think of doing this over the past year.......it's no small project, but I like it!

Dave

 

can i get a blue set?
