thanks mate

very helpful, cheers!

why isnt this a sticky?

how do you change the needle lights?

:bump:

don;t think you can change needle lights they are inclosed unit

just done this :) took 3 days though :( as i ant that good at soildering lol 60 leds it took me LOL!

Looking at how to do this for a while top guide

hiya are these the right type of LEDs to do this, thanks?????

i fooked mine up
 

you dont need a soldering iron just heat up a screw driver it still melts the solder just takes a bit longer :)

or just get soldering iron for 10 gbp

blue dials rule :P

Great guide m8 looks awsome. Anyone in the north east done this? Wanting mine done but would rather get someone that knows what there doing rather than take ages on it myself, also dont have the tools. Pm me If you can or know some one that can do this. I will buy the leds and also pay for you to do it and come to you if local

i know this thread has been made a while ago- but went maplins today and they didnt have the same led lights you got- i gave them the light number and they didnt evan hear of them :S :S :S what size led lights do you need 3mm or 5mm and would anyones do ? thanks

Anyone know where to get the l.e.ds to do a 00 vtr?

Cheers

they are

maplins wont do them, theyre not 3mm or 5mm they like 1mm tops, you handle them with tweezers.

ebay is your best bet and where i got mine from

just ordered 20 of ebay for £5 including P&P dont know if thats a good price but this is a top guide, cheers

thats well nice i want some

iv just done mine :) a few ups and downs :) led exploded and temp blinded me haha... all done now, looks top... oh and forgot to change the 2 behind the digi screen so i got blie clocks and green screen... fml... bk off soon lol

I've just bought these LED's and got my soldering Iron, gonna give this a try! :) I'm doing the fuel gauge and the one thats on the left white, see how that goes....

REMEMBER: Which way around the led are positioned on the board otherwise wont work i made this mistake and means having to take the led back off

that looks epic! u must need a steady hand to pull a job off like that! nice work mate! what other colours can you get? are they just blue?

You need an extreme sheady hand and good soldering skills. Best thing i did is buy a second dial incase one messed up i had one to use in the car. You can get in other colours blue is just popular, i beleive white and red

that looks awesome i know what im doing next :D

I've done mine!! :D Took chuffing ages to get at the dials, I didn't have the right tool for the big torx screw. I've never really soldered before so an amateur can do this. just don't be frightened and get stuck in :)


Not too sure if the picture will show.

Apologies for double post. Hopefully picture will work now.

great guide! these clocks look awesome!

That looks amazing, will have to try this in the future
