Id like to get my gauges re-done. White face with LED lighting, etc. Who does the best job. Do they have a website with costs?

Thanks,

Steve

I have a couple DIY'er threads on how to integrate single or multicolor LED's inside each gauge can. I can also do it for you and include my custom controller which changes the color to red at a set RPM

Just out of curiosity. Did you use an arduino for the tachometer?
I built one that works on either the stock ignition (tach signal) or (easier) a cleaner signal from a Mallory unilite optical pickup.
I used an interrupt driven frequency counter in the Arduino.

Turns my tach bright blue as a shift light.
