Interior How-To: LED Gauge Cluster

I've thought about getting some blue LEDs to "properly" light my cluster, but the damn painters tape did such a good job I'm reluctant to take evreything apart and try something new. Myabe if I decide to ditch the blue....

Sorry, but I've never gotten into LEDs. I always assume folks have their stock bulbs, so that's what I design my gauges around. With LEDs, there are too many unknowns, so I tell my customers they're on their own if they choose to use them.
FWIW, I've been making gauge faces for about 8 years and selling them for about a year and a half now. I've made around 50 sets for folks. (not a commercial, just trying to put my experience into perspective).

As for the mylar, I have to put in some work on the car later tonight, so I will snap a picture for you guys with the lights on. in the mean time...
Keep in mind that I am running amber lights, which tend be the weakest of the LEDs. I found the green to be much brighter and less prone to the hot spotting when using the 360 LEDs.
