Default got some stuff glowin!!

made my SI emblem glow at night. it looks really good. i just used this diy to make it happen. http://www.brokenlimits.com./howto/h...owtosiglow.htmit wasnt hard at all. although, it is very bright because the bulb is right behind it so therefore i am going to use some window tint and put it where i sanded and just keep adding it until i get the right brightness i want. (all this later though when i get the gauges blue and everything.) here are some pics -

oh yea, i also sanded behind the redline ( 8 & 9 ) so that glows pretty good too now. i didnt take any pics of that though the camera wouldnt take it right. it looks good though

sorry for another post but i cant put but 2 pics on one. anyways, notice i said "stuff" well i was just looking through the diy's on here and found a vtec light install. except i used different locations and did 2 of them. on the top left i have DOHC and then top right, VTEC. i dont have them lit up but i should by tomorrow night. im using blue led's to put there. i know the back of it doesnt look good and all but you cant see it when its all back together and it really looks good. some pics---

Yea I sanded the black behind the "unleaded fuel only" lettering on mine just for fun....... it also helps if doing full led conversion to sand all the black diffusing/shading off the number section of the gauges to allow more even light.

Makes me with I had an SI to properly rock SI gauges lol

well i have my 3 ***** done....im going to do all the gauges blue (want to have the needles light up red though. dunno how???? and im gonna order some more individual led's to light up the 3 buttons (max ac, ac, defrost) i just put in the 2 blue led's in my cluster. its not hooked up to vtec yet but here is how it will look when i hit 5500 rpm's!!! - - sorry my camera takes horrible night shots. looks better in person but here are some pics. as long as my vtec wire is the same as the ex, i shouldnt have a problem. i think its the green wire with the yellow stripe. anybody know exactly? im not real sure where the ecu is either. behind the glove box?
