did my SS gauge in blue, need to do some tweeks, i'll get to that later but i think it looks pretty good, its a lot deeper blue then it looks in the pics


This is my setup so far, boost gauge is next, just ordered 1204 smled's which im pretty sure are the right size, i'll do a little how to when i do it i think and post it here, even though i know black cat customs did one already.

i bought my leds for my led conversion from Oznium- (surface mounts for steering wheel) and i went to let-switch for my 3mm 12v for my all other switches. hvac, foglights, traction control, window, mirror, and door locks. mirror lock is the hardest to do took about 2 hrs just do that switch alone.

did you use resistors for the 3mm led's? or do you just buy a 12 v LED and put it directly on?

anyone have pics of changing the LEDs on the radio? I took my stereo apart when I had my 06 ss and it seemed like a LOT to do. I'm guessing my 09 is the same way.

will 3mm LEDs work for it? cause I just ordered some 3mm today from led-switch.com
also, is there a way to change the gauge cluster to red, but make the needles white?
