Converted dash lights to LED's
Here's where it started:
Above: Dash in the car. The dash at night was faintly lit and difficult for this old guy to see.
Dash out and on work bench. While out,
I replaced the temp gauge and
fuel gage and repainted the black
surface.

Labeled all the existing bulbs and connectors.
Replaced regular bulbs with proper LED bulbs and colors.
While dash was suspended by 1/4x 5" bolts, I inserted the proper connector to it's proper place. Not an easy chore hanging upside down on your back. Very cramped area to work in. While in this suspended state, I connected my battery and tried each bulb and it's function. No sense putting it all together to find out something didn't work right.
The end result in almost total darkness. Soooo much brighter than the normal bulbs. Well with it for me.
