Hi guys

Just wondering if you can do an LED iinstrument cluster version for an EA S-Pack dash.

I tried with orange wedge bulbs a while ago and found that the instrument cluster lighting did not make my gauges a bright orange but rather half of the dash was dimmed with little or no light.

Is the S-Pack cluster unable to be done as it has the orange dials on black facing (rather then white dials on black facing).

From what I have read it is only applicable to EF/EL dashes?

Thanks guys
Troy

Has anyone done an EA/EB series dash. Don't think I would be the first?

What LED's were they and do you have white gauge inserts or the standard orange and black that come with the S-Pack dash?

Can you give me some help either in the post or on the forums. Your nick rings a bell, probably have asked you something about this in the past?

I purchased orange LED's a while back but the lighting effect was really terrible. Half my instrument cluster was very dark or nothing at all (didn't light up). The part that was lit up didn't really light up bright orange. All the LED's did work and were not broken.

How many LED's do I need, where is the best place to get them and do I need anything else besides the LED bulbs themselves?
