Hey OntairoTL those gauges look insane. I'm still look'n forward to coming to London within the next month to get dire gauges done. I'm still looking for a 2000+ cluster so don't worry I'm working on it and if you see any avaiable just msn me and let me know the details.

 

Yeah keep looking, still awaiting parts for the cluster to come in

 

Completed my buddies 6 disc changer tonight....

 

hola this is hot please tell me how u did~~~?

VancouverTL

 

wow.. OntarioTL.. the 6CD CHANGER LOOKS HOT.. .. i can't wait to do the Cluster.. counting the days :P ... btw.. big snow storm coming up I heard...

 

Diy??

 

^^^^what he said

 

^^^What They said.

 

No DIY yet. Sorry

I've been pretty busy lately. I have a few LED/Cluster installs lined up this weekend. I have to take more pics so I can piece together a complete DIY. I started on one, but have revised a few things since then, so I need to start over again. Patience!!!!

 

Well I updated my dash completely...new leds (brighter) and a few new experiments. This is the final conversion for my dash, oh wait....oh yeah the last will be when I install my fogs and install the switch for it Again the camera doesn't pick up the dark blue it comes out as a light blue. You have to see it in person. I'm very curious to try someones car in red someday...

I just have the power window LEDs to update but I'll wait until its warmer out.








On to my next project(s)

 

hey ontario, i finished my diy..https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=154298. now u have to finish yours! lol

 

LOL! Fair enough! I didnt realise how hard it is to sit in front of a computer and write up a DIY and sort through plenty of picture to assemble for the DIY.

Good job on yours!!

 

me either... after like hour 1, i was like... WHY ISNT THIS DONE YET!!!

 

Getting my Cluster Done!!!!! in London... believe OntarioTL when he says that the leds look MUCH BETTER in person then the pics!

 

damn it's cold there.. -3?? lol.. looks nice though

 

yaaa... feels a lot colder though.. damn windchilll!! ahh.. gettin the cluster done too so ya.....

 

Plus that is in Celcius for all the Americans thinking it is really damn cold...

 

Damn, Just browsed through this forum. I have to say this is a very clean job. Any one in Northern Virginia know how to do this? I'd pay you cuz my Interior looks like shit right now.

 

well the gauges look hot now... however @ work so no pics yet.. will post before/after pics soon..

 

sick. How long did the whole process take?

 

It took all day. As for today's work, I finished the rest of my buddies car today. I'm just showing why I haven't done the DIY yet. Too bloody busy!!!

 

Neat touch with the red on the radio. I think green would look good as well (thats what I want).

EDIT: What did tnt7 do for the whole day while at your place?

 

tnt7 brought his laptop and connected to my wireless internet while I did the job. He's coming back Saturday to finish off the rest.

 

Cool, cool. What is there left to be done?

 

Minus the gauge cluster...everything!

 

where do you get these LEDs from?

 

SICK, Now is it me or are those LED's in our 2nd Gen TL's cluster just wayyyyy tooo bright for our model TL, bright to the point where its overly lit and kinda harsh to the eyes.... Cuz in a newer model TL 3rd Gen, the LED cluster is nicely lit and not overly bright but obviously thats a brand new car. IDK, what do u all think?

 

pretty sure he said the dimmer still works

 

k.. first of all.. they are NOT too bright... in fact.. they make the car look like a brand new car.. and i dunno what the hell ur talkin about when it comes to a "brand new car look" .... it doesn't matter... as long as the gauge looks nice.. it doesn't matter if the car is New or not... i would post pics but i'm waiting for my camera so will post soon.. it looks so much better in person...

2nd... the DIMMER WORKS... and it works to the point where u can make it just as bright or even dimmer then the factory look.... during the day.. this thing looks SICK.. during the night.. it looks AMAZING!!... everyone asks about the cluster when they get in the car.... (who are into cars) ... thats my 2 cents...

i love it.. worth every penny... OntarioTL did a great job and now i can't wait til the rest of my dash is done up....

oh , u can also customize the look through ONtarioTL.. so it doesn't have to be white/blue etc....

 

i'm gonna do a custom tint job on the cluster since the gauges are now bright enough to be seen during the day.... it should make my "stealth cluster" work perfectly....

see, one thing u guys have to know is.. the dimmer is there for a reason... cuz some ppl like it bright and some people don't so as long as ur dimmer works.... the gauges will suit u perfectly fine!

 

cant wait for tom im getten mine done

 

REALLY Mono?!?! Damn, once toronto AZ meets come along, ima be the only one without this hot mod!!

 

^x2

 

I need a DIY please since I am not in Ontario.... ><

 

yea for real, Waiting for your DIY.............CMON!!!!!

 

Patience!!!!!!!!

 

i kno i am late on this forum but hey that is sooooooooo nice. omg i've been wanting to do that to my car but i dont kno where to get the gauges from. i've been searching all over the internet but cant seem to find it. i love the final results. Can you pleaseeeeeeeeeeee tell me where u got this from. thanks. -acurababy215

 

I know something you dont know...

 

You can't buy'em. I modded the original cluster to accomidate the leds installed.

 

Nice job! ...i'm in the process of installing reverse glow gauges but sadly the ones I got from ebay are shoddy quality. i like the look but unfortunately they don't glow completely esp. the tach. Also I have a 99 TL and it appears the seller lied w/ he said they'd fit a 99 b/c the gears don't seem to line up. Where's you get yours from (the first attempt MPH). I am mistaken or did you cut out the gear rectangles b/c they don't line u? ... i had to do the same. Holla ~shAC-man. I'll try to post some pics.
