A little hot spots but hardly noticeable. I have about 30 super white and wide angle LEDs behind each gagues. To make the needle look hot red I used very narrow angle and super bright read LEDs.

Bought all my LEDs from this company:

White LEDs I used: LF200CW6KB-27

Blue LEDs I used: BPL201CB1K-5Vf
http://www.netdisty.net/ds/L121CB/

Red LEDs I used: L206CR3K-5.4VF

Here is a list of other color LEDs:

I'll leave this up but please stop posting duplicate threads in multiple forums. Bump your old ones if you must.

WOW

Holy sheit... that's some awesome work you did.

It looks like there's a trillion LEDs there. Is that the exact same number of halogen bulbs that were originally in there, or did you have to put that many LEDs to compensate for the hot spots?

About the wiring, did you just solder the LEDs directly to the PCB or did you have to use resistors etc.?

Again, GREAT WORK.
