Yep they'll do what you need - check out my dials in my gallery (if you didn't see the pics earlier in this thread)

For $20 they're a good price, that's about what I was getting them for before. My mate said he can get them in again but I have to order 500 :lol:
If a few of you are going to bid on those on ebay, don't bid against each other :)

Yeah I can see what you mean. Your dials look ace. I reckon you should do the aircon unit in blue to complement the cluster

you could try putting 1x more LED behind the clock and Odo LCD screen??

I have found that these sort of conversions require a bit of trial and error

I've you're going to run multiple leds up close get some 3mm ones with a wide viewing angle and angle them in different directions - ie 3 3mm ones aiming like this:

any chance you have the orginal photoshop files, not the jpegs? Im going to do mine green, but as soon as you change the jpegs in photoshop they go all grainy
EDIT: Nevermind, your using a standard dash. Looks good though
