Ok, so i'm starting here:

Bent two tabs, tack is out

Added some foil with some trim adheasive. Turned her on

Now you can see how much better the light is dispersed around the led.

Put gauges on real quick.

The far side of the tach is lit up buy another led, hopefully it works well. Compare the left side of the tach with the speedo though, huge difference. And it only took me like 10 min. Study time is over, back to work on these things....Update in accouple of hours

Ok, foil is done. You can see it's not that much of a help. It works, i need something more though.

I'm going to mess with plexglass and see if i can't make a better diffusor.

If you removed your needles then it's probably because you didn't put them back in the correct spot.

i didnt removed the needles. i replaced the whole thing. didnt do any on the cluster. i bought a cluster and replaced the one i have. but when i put em on the temp goes all the way up. :confused: :confused: :confused:

It's not the sensors it's your gauges. it's not calibrated right

i know. thats what i thought. i jas took it off cause it gets on my nerve seeing my gauge all the way up.. but you know what we tried 2 more clusters its doin the same thing. so im thinking maybe the computer(ecu)
it doesnt match. (98-00, 01-02) with the cluster is there like a code or that it needs to be matched???? :confused: :confused: :confused:
