Did a search and came up with pretty much nothing i could use..

Does anyone know if the 'amber/redish' color of the gauge cluster created by light bulbs of that color, or if the numberings and marks on the gauge itself are tinted that color? I'm trying to see how hard it would be to change the background coloring of the gauges.

I did talk to blackcatcustom.com but that's still 90 bucks i could save if it's not too difficult to do myself

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

 

It's the coloring of the gauges.

 

I'm with windom. You can still change the color though. I had a couple sets I experimented on. One I tried to change to blue, that did'nt work out 'cause the yellow backing on the gauge combined with blue becomes green. I was successful in changing another to red. Seeing that you are in Cali, go to KB Toys and get a can of Tesla transparent paint. If you can't find it there, any hobby shop should have it.

 

this is what i did, dont know if it helps at all. its about half way down the page.https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ghlight=gauges

 

^^ awesome! that's exactly what i was looking for. thanks a ton

 

um, any idea how many LED's are needed behind the gauge cluster?

 

read that whole thread. he lists everything he used

 

+1, that is a VERY good thread for changing the color of the gauges!

 

i just replaced the original bulbs with white leds and sanded the orange off, its dim in a few spots but not bad.
