Okay guys, i covered my 3 guage a-pillar to match the rest of the interior of my car. The guages look pretty good in there, and the arm looks so much better now that it matches the passengers side arm in pattern again. My question is about the LED power in the autometer guages, which I haven't actually hooked up yet. The instructions say to attach it to the same power source that the dash guages are hooked upto, so that the LEDs aren't permanently on and so they dim the same as the cluster. Is there an easy way to take out the little piece in the dash that the actual brightness dial is on. Otherwise I'll have to pull out my whole cluster again and splice into the same wire that i hooked my dash LEDs to. Just wondering which is easier to do.

its just the regular a arm thats along the drivers side of the windshield, thats where the guages are so you can see them while your driving. I just stretched my fabric over it, it was actually really tricky because of all the crazy curves, and the holes where the quages go in. Anybody know about the power?

the dial is attached to the vent, carefully use a flat head screw driver, that one is the easiest to get out of all the vents tho

1st my A/f ratio is dimmer then the other 2 which are really bright, anyone know what resistors i should put on the other 2 to take down the voltage a bit.
2nd my a/f is jumpin all over the place, what should i do, i remember reading about this probem but can't find it in the search.
