Looks heaps better.
Can you explain a bit more about the LED conversion and what it involves? |

Did you get to the LED's ? Nothing beats the candles that they call dashlights.

Haha, tell me about it. I just purchased some t10 LEDs to use instead of globes and i lined the inside of the cluster with foil tape so it spreads the light everywhere. I haven't powered it up yet but i shined 1 LED from my phone camera and it lit up half the cluster on its own. I'll post some pics when its lit up.
