Finally finished pillar guages
I finally finished my guages.You know since im mechanically impaired the install kicked my butt, the oil i spillt all over from the sending unit pretty much confirmed it but Here is the final product
Gauges illuminated
Why didnt I just get voltage instead of oil temp..ima mad man.would have been way less work.
Full chickenpit:<---- i didnt say that i said clockpit
I want to say thx to ION for helping me with my many issues...I asked questions that could qualify me for the noob of the year award but he was cool about it..lol..but once again I appreciate all the help ION.

search for yalero's page on "i just got 100 leds"
although, the middle part of that should really be reloacted into the "how to" section
looks good saint. i've been looking for some decent gauges, and i think you just gave me a link to my newest ones. Mine are some el-cheapos from ebay and flicker/don't light up great and my oil pressure doesn't read correctly... so thanks for that.
