Looking to change the cluster color in my 03 screw. I know I have to acetone the grren film off, but is it possible to change the green lcd display for the odometer to blue? If so how?

 

I wouldn't think that would be a very easy task to take on. Im sure you would have to solder in some different color bulb.. if you could even do that.

 

Yeah kinda what I thought. hmmmm well that sucks. Has anybody done the color change on the 99+? I'd like to see pics. I was thinking of going blue to match my deck, but now I don't know if I want it to be all blue with the odometer green.

 

Dingus did his, but he went red. Many other people have done it.. I did mine. Its a 98 though, but I am a pic *****.

It looks a lot more blue in person, but the camera really brings out the lighter side of it.

 

I did a custom cluster for Sundevil, but havent gotten around to playing with a fix for the odometer color.....

Here is how his turned out



and a daytime picture of the cluster installed

 

Here's mine, as for the odometer, I just acetone the plastic window and put red film on it.



Patman, how did you do the PRND21 gauge?

 

Patman what did you do to get rid of the smaller numbers and such?

 

I used fingernail polish remover on the PRND21 (its like 60% acetone or something like that)


I have a few tricks up my sleeve

 

Care To share?

 

Well today I went for it and cleaned all the green film off the back of the cluster. So now I just need to order some LEDs. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to order them from? Thanks. Also while I was doing that I decided it'd be a good idea to ummm...disassemble the rest of the interior for some dash painting etc. Pics will be up within a few days.

 

I have an 02 Lariat screw I would like to do this mod to. I have the digital HVAC controls does anyone know how to change the colors on these?

The more I see this done, the more I want to do it Guess I will just have to order the bulbs and jump into it

And Patman... no fair saying you have a few tricks up your sleeve You're amongst friends here

 

I dont share all my secrets on the Patman Grill. Still havent done my truck's cluster so maybe after then we'll talk

 

thanks for the links patman. Do you know what the bulbs are in the cluster? i was told 194s but when i was looking today they seem smaller than a 194. I believe the two bulbs for the HVAC are 194s but not the cluster. Thanks
