Well I just can't leave well enough alone. Another member had the same idea as myself not too long ago, to make the Tach brighter by adding a 3rd light. Well, I am totally in love with these blue LED lights and figured, "while I'm in there....." I am gonna be adding the third light (I need a bigger drill bit), but I was remembering that people were not too thrilled with the red needle on the tach and speedo. So, I am working on painting them white to better reflect the available light.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what paint to use? I have been goofing with different types all night, but not getting the results that I am wanting. The ever tweeking one (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wavey.gif) |
