doesn't look nice? - - nice one!!!
i have both bulbs...the LED's and the ones at the auto part store. The led's are so much brighter but i think i need a 6th bulb. i'm gonna buy another prong or housing (whatever holds the bulb) and put it back there. i can use 5 bulbs w/ the regular ones though.

I did mine red also... my roommate has a vr6 and his interior looks sick with all the red lights...
Just need to take the time out to figure how to change the ac unit lighting and the fog switch and the cig lighter...
I will say that the nice part of having them red is that I didn't need to color the needles... They look more red than orange now that the background is red... nice blend.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(VIO)</div><div class='quotemain'> i got the shitty plastic aluminum look-a-like bezel on ebay. Â*fucking waste of $16 (that includes shipping). Â*to find the chrome bezel just search for "galant" on ebay and it will come up in the first couple of pages. Â*i can't wait to get the chrome one and get ride of the crappy one i have now. Â*now if i can just find some chrome racing pedals to match!!!</div>
I hope you understand that chrome will really fuck you up at certain times even if you dont have a sunroof. very bright shit. I have all kinda chrome stuff on my car, and at times I regret getting the chrome bezel. but its really up tp you.

seems like there's always some rigging and puzzle piece-ing when it comes to our G's. i don't mind the challenge, though. there's a lot of creativity here in this forum.

I wouldnt say that is exactly correct. I (well, my dumbass brother) left mine on all night, then all day the next day until night again, when I finally realized they were on, luckily no melting.
I would test them out. try 30 mins. if they still fairly cool, try 1 hour. i wouldnt go much more longer than that. good luck!

good lookin' out knightrider. i finally got the correct bulb type for the dome. they sent the wrong ones. if i find them at the autopart store, i'll save some cheese and send the one's i ordered back.

did you get you lights from sissons lights? they sent you the correct bulbs? the one's w/ the hooks on the end?
-
oh no, what I meant was the auto parts store. Autozone to be exact.
-
oh ok..that's where i got my bulb type. i would bought the bulb but they didn't have any. i'll check out another autozone tonite or this weekend.

i cleared my needles. i'm finally done. it took forever!!! this took me 3 hours! nail polish remover didn't even phase them. they just looked right back at me and laughed. i had to use paint thinner and rub and rub and rub with q-tips until the orange started coming off. then i had to get a needle and scrape the little bit of color that was left in the crevices.
you guys that did it already suck. you got the easy gauges.
-
i had a little bit of trouble myself when it came to the crevice where the needles were being held. i pried it open w/ my finger nail and used a needle to get the rest of the orange out. good thing it was saturated w/ the polish remover or else my needles would've been scratched. that was the hardest part for me.
-
Ok, I ripped apart the dash board, got the gauges out, put the red bulbs in, and they are not working! Do the bulb holder things have to be put in a certain way, or maybe a certain order. Cause I noticed each one is numbered. 70-72 and then 74, and 75!?!?! or maybe its not working cause i didnt plug in the dimmer switch? :x
Please help
-
RED ..... good choice........ i did that to mine .... maybe you should try pluggin in the dimmer switch.... i had no prob with my bulbs not workin .... i pretty much figured it out
-
yea, i def. answered my own question, it was the dimmer switch. thnx anyway bro. I wish i could see what it looks like, i guess i gotta wait till it gets dark. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif
