Re: HOW TO: SN95 LED Gauge Cluster

To answer everyones question about if they will turn blue on the black faced gauges.. i have an answer and its YES, it will change to blue, i just did it on my 95 gt and it worked, still have not got to the HVAC systems yet, but the speedo and everything work.

Guess I should have added that I did my black faces gauges about 6 months ago and I can confirm they are now blue. Sorry didn't realize that was what was being questioned. They actually look really good.

Yeah,

I have a friend who is a EE looking into finding the right parts. It may take a while.

Re: HOW TO: SN95 LED Gauge Cluster

Ok just wondering what the verdict is so if we have stock GT gauges and we place white LEDs in them they will turn blue? Same with the HVAC? Or will they stay green but be brighter?

I do not know about the HVAC yet but am doing it right now and will post up the answer in about 30 mins. But to answer your question about the black face gauges is YES they will turn blue, once i get the hvac setup i will post up pics.

Re: HOW TO: SN95 LED Gauge Cluster

Guys trey hit this right square on the head. Get white led bulbs. The reason the guage cluster is green from the factory is the halogen bulbs arent bright enough to emit a white light. More yellowish thus yellow + blue = green.

i remember doing this along time ago. i loved it

without the plastic bezel over everything
theres the proof. White light thru stock guages = blue

NOTE: The Pillar guages are blue bulbs

Re: HOW TO: SN95 LED Gauge Cluster

OK i just wanted to make sure they would look blue before i rip all that apart. Looks clean though im still debating on getting the reverse glow form UPR but if i do this it would save me money and look cool too

This is kinda off topic but does anyone know how to change the color off the needles or if we can buy different colored ones?

Interesting. I'm just curious as to what color you would swap them for? Orange seems to set off very nicely with the blue background. The contrast makes it very easy to see.

Re: HOW TO: SN95 LED Gauge Cluster

You might try finding needles off a vehicle you like and buying a used GT cluster and then runnig a little experiment.
