If you mean inside the needles...I plan on doing a whole mod for that soon. In fact I may get a group together to do all that after I'm done with the aluminum trim/sills group mod Heh group mod...interesting term I've come up with...anyway...I plan on doing something like below, but with less light emittance so that it doesn't look like light is seeping out...and of course exchanging the backlighting for our gauges, as well as everything else that I've been planning for quite some time now...so ask me in a month or so and I'll be able to set you up...or you'll probably see it posted

Thanks guys.
UW TL, I just zip-tied the inverter to a wire bundle under the dash and taped the switch to the metal brace behind the driver's side fuse panel.

VDo, buddy...
What's goin' on?
I'm the guy up in Detroit with the Euro-fogs on my Accord. I can't help but continue to thank you for helping me w/ that install.
Looks like you're still freakin' out your cars and stuff. I like the TL's but I think my next car is gonna be something German (bmw, mercedes, vdub.). I love Honda's but I just wanna try something new.
I know it's gonna cost grip to mod bimmmers and benzes though!!
Your reverse indiglos look sweeet! Seems like no matter what, you always go for the clean classy look for your cars.
Good job dude!

That looks nice!!!! I just got mine working as well. I put the inverter in the little hole right under lower-left screw of the gauge cluster. Fits nice and snug. My question is, where do you guys mount your buttons? I want it easily accessible but not noticeable. That would be easier if the entire ribbon cable and button didn't glow as well.
