I purchased an old set of gauges from a member and had plans to do the LED upgrade. Found out that Mark (Newvintageusa) was unable to do the work, they are swamped with other stuff. I talked to Al Garcia, (awesome Guy) and he is fighting cancer on a day by day basis, and he was not able to do the job in any quick timeframe. (prayers for ya Al) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I jumped onto the world wide web and found a company that does LED kits on Ebay. They have never actually done any work on these types of gauges before, but I figured Hey, i have another set if they mess them up. What the Heck, Why Not. A week later (today actually) the guy calls and said the gauges are done. He took everything apart cleaned them and painted the needles with a ultraviolet paint. The needles actually glow (how cool is that) and the L E D strips are unbelieveable.

Did he put red led's in the reline area or is that just from the gauges themselves?

I did not ask him too, I just said "Make them look Cool" totally a cool company. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Attached image(s)
