i tried to take a picture but unsuccessful my new camera dosn't have the "twilight" mode. the green ones aren't as bright as the white or blue but they look great with my autometer NV tach. everything matches and is gentle on the eyes while driving. if i get ahold of better camera from one of my friends i will take a picture.

Thanks. I have a 5" autometer lunar series tach that lights up green so i wanted to stay with the "Green Theme" I didn't have the tach hooked up or my pillar gauges at the time of the photos.

Blue is nice, the stock colors are boring.

Are the bulbs in the cluster green or are the factory overlays green tinted?

The bulbs are clear...but being an incandescent bulb they emit a yellowish light. The overlays are more of a blue color...but when combined with the standard bulbs the light shining through ends up being green.

So all you did was put in Blue led bulbs with the stock overlays?

Nice thanks, I ordered my lights today. Hopefully it will look as good as yours without having to do gauge overlays. Sorry for bringing the thread back from the dead.

Well, it's the moment you all have been waiting for. Ive installed and taken pictures of the stock instument panel, the instrument panel with single led wedge based blue bulbs and finally the panel with white wled-x6 wedge based bulbs (all found on superbrightleds.com).

First off...stock



Next, the blue



And last, the white. Now...the white for some reason would not let me take a clear pic with my cheap digital camera. I took 6 pictures...yet all came out worse than the one that follows. Anyways, you'll still get the jist of it.
