Custom triple meter modification...

Raven · 11-16-2010, 05:37 PM

i did a full LED swap on my old TC too. was my first time trying to solder anything. you definately needs LOTS of patience when doing this. and a steady hand. i remember the LEDs were soo small...that even a heavy breath would blow them all over the place.

If you can work on the tC, then you should have no problem working on the Z!

With the blue and white LEDs I had in possession there wasn't any need for the combination meter. As for the triple meter, I didn't have any means of testing it so 2theextreme will be the first to see the result when it gets plugged in.

As for the door switches and HVAC, changing out the resistors may be needed blue. For white, it's bright enough for my taste.

Digi - Can you post how much time goes into something like this? Downtime for the car/ labor for yourself, shipping the parts if need be...

I'd really like to do this to my Z as well if you're interested in making a trend out of doing this. I'll do whatever Tony did to reimburse you! lol
