theer is a how to on it.. i wrote it up.. search for gauge colors.... after everyone asking me how i did it i wrote a how to on it... looks good. just like mine

-drew

ok here is the how to... it's simple but send any questions if you need any help but that thread pretty much answers them all

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-guide-43/how-gauge-colors-41985/


this is an old pic before i installed my gauge pods.. but it gets the point across

-drew

TCarter: if you hardwire it dont hardwire it to go on when the car is on.. i hardwired mine to the center cig liter and then to a switch... that way when your parked at a show or where ever you can leave them on.. it wont drain your battery since it dosnt pull ant power really... just another thought

good point c0balt. pretty much everything i got on my car is wired so it turns on when my car is "on".

My neons, grill strobes must have the key in the on position for them to work. i figured itd be a hell of a lot better to have them turn on when the car turns on so i dont have to dick with a switch.

However, for ***** and giggles, i might as well(if i wanted to do that), just buy another strip completely, stack them side by side..

but im thinkin of getting the same style LED strip, but with the automated multi color changes.

im sure itd look good during a show or parked for someone to peek in and see them changing/fading all sorts of colors.

but who knows.

it was only $20

i tied mine all together to work on one swicth if you look in my how to forum you can see where i place them.. the other switch will be for my under glow/engin LED's once it gets warmer out i also have plans for LED's to be attched in the groove on the underside of my SC wing.. it's just an idea but it can always be taken off..

also a good thing about the leds tied to a switch is .. if you get pulled over they can ticket you for them well atleast in ny/nj they can

ya, i know that neon bars and crap inside can be caused for a ticket...but something to where it affects the guages only...they wont give 2 *****.

but im actualy debating what im going to do to my car for car shows...im gettin my shop soon, with the shop comes a new company truck....with the company truck comes the ability to rip apart my car completely, and overhaul it.
