Request: Illuminated door sill pics 2nd gen

I dont know about you guys but my dash lights are not the brightest and I want a led conversion, In that case these Illuminated doors sills would be slammin.
Requesting..
1. pics of the door sills from supercomputers or the "cut out" lettered ones from ebay.
2. any comments on how you feel about em

Please and thanks

Almost done!!!

This is a friends car, were doing mine very soon, I will be sure to post pics when it is complete. His is blue, mine is going to be white. On a side note, hes got a Computer Science degree and says this is a very difficult, very tideous operation. so if you arent good with electronics/sauldering, dont even try it. Each section takes 4-5 hours of precise actions.

GOOD WORK MAN!!!That looks bloody stunning. I had a feeling it was going to be horribly tideous.
With a LED conversion in the dash and some nice sills that match the lights, the interior will start lookin fresh.

Is there no type of shop that deals directly in wiring... maybe i could get all the bulbs and equipment and throw it all to somone. (an audio wiring place wouldn't have this expertise would they?..)

02cls All this trouble/work you've gone through is specifically with the dash bulbs correct...Have you done any work with wiring the sills in?

i like the LED idea, but i think it looks silly unless you do something with the speedo/gauges cause they are still yellowish

Having the whole dash LED - speedo radio everything is what gives it the effect for sure.
complete LED dash + the sills, it would look brand new.
I bet he will do the speedo too.
Damn the complete LED interior would look so top shelf.

hopefully he knew each wattage/voltage/ma of all of those bulbs and used the correct resistors. if not they will burn out. and trust me, for some reason acura decided to use slightly different bulbs for all those stupid things.

I really like that alot. Im wanting to change the interior lights at some point. Question, the speedometer and such, are those just different lights or is the face plate different as well? Looks very sharp!
