Gauge Problem
I drive a Lightning and am themeing my truck with blue LEDs, but it distracts the whole atmosphere with the green gauges.
I went to a shop and bought a blue gauge overlay for my cluster, after being assured that they will work perfectly. It wasnt until later that I learned it was a MASSIVE mistake. Since the Lightning's have a speedometer that stops at 140, and the new one stops at 100. But also, I have nothing working now, except my gas gauge. Everything else ahs the needles on wrong and the whole thing is a big pain.
Forever ago, I saw a sollution to my problem. Somebody changed the bulbs inside the cluster to blue, instead of white- overpowering the green that is matted on the back of the overlay.
Has anybody ever done this or seen this? Does anybody know what kind of bulbs to buy, or how well this works? Has anybody ever changed the color to blue, and if so, how?
The answer to any of those questions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
