Earlier this week I got some custom gauge faces in from Dave Barton, man did they come out nice. www.davebarton.com <~~~ send this guy your money.
I picked up an instrument cluster at a local JY that was smooth instead of the horrible look of the newer instrument, saving me a step in painting. Glued on a 3M LED strip, drilled a hole through the top of the IC and routed the wire to the lighting area. Soldered in the LED (lead is top, ground is bottom iirc). Carefully stickered the gauges and here we are. Please excuse the terrible pictures, I have no idea how to resize them using g+ or windows 8.
