dash lighting

[jaybee]

hi all , got fed up not seeing the speedo when driving into the sun so put a strip of leds into dash and a switch ,amazing difference for some reason cant get the before and after pics to come up just the after
anyway safe travelling ::

Thats a neat idea. I have 10% tint on my windows so even in broad daylight it's very hard to see. I'm currently going the more difficult route and changing my dials to white facing with blue numbers and markings. Hopefully finish it today.

Great idea , near impossibly to see the speedo in daylight at certain times, Love your thinking

Great idea mate, thanks for sharing !

did you use dimmable LEDs and run them through the dimmer like the factory dash lights ?
