Gosh I love it! but I have to paint the needles correctly and redo the back to have white and yellow on the RPM gauge.

Overall, it took a little over 2 hours. I didn't fully connect one SMD and had to run back and forth to do it. that wasted a lot of time.

Here are the pics, Enjoy!

That looks awesome. Great job, Mike. Now all you need is the paddle shift.

I'm offering this service to anyone in the Tri-State area. (Only because I would want to test it works on your car without any problems).

The total price for this mod would be $100.

That includes:
8 SMD LED's
White and Yellow Tape
Painting needles Red
About 2 1/2 hours of labor + or - 1/2. Depends on situation.
Removal and installation.

You would have to unplug you battery and do not close your trunk at all. You can meet me at my house or we can do it at your house. I would want to take my time with this because rushing is no good.

Please PM me if you are interested.
