Hey ya,
Im planning ,my dash started to get some stuff together, and talking to people at my local club. I have reached a problem though and need some inspiration...
Ive got a few 52mm gauges, that dont have back lights, so in the dark im not going to be able to tell what they are reading...i was wondering, they are all localized around my Speedo in the centre.
Has anyone got some dash lighting...or found a way to light the 52mm gauges.
I need inspiration!!!!!
Kindest Regards
Alastair

Drill into the side of the gauge and place them in there, one wide angle LED at the bottom should be enough to make the face 'glow'
