^I was going to refer him to your site but as you said, there wasnt a how to up yet for it. BTW, i f-in love that site. It came in handy while aleromod was down yesterday. Now I cant get enough of it (even though i have gone through the whole thing like 600 times).

ok so i put the leds in the needles and everything worked fine than i went to put the speedo back togather and I think I blew a fuse. So my question is where is the fuse box for the speedo?

The led kit is from import intellegance and a real @#$%&"@# pain to install,:drunk:
but they sure look nice. Check out my wife's Alero at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3131560 .

I am at work now but i will try to get some pics of mine up today, It looks great. I put the needles to my cubby light so I can dim them, cause at night they can be pretty bright.
Since I got that blueish tint off the speedo my speedo lights up a off white color but it looks good, but I am waiting for some white leds from ebay then they are going in,So then the speedo will light up white and the needles blue

i forgot to pay the internet bill so I havent been able to upload any pics in a while so here they are. The second pic i had the flash on but I am assuming that is what it will look like with white leds behind there, Sorry about the blurry pics

NICE! eventually, i think i'll open mine back up and JUST do red. instead of the 2 color. (too much work, too little space)
