I'm offering a service to retrofit the backlighting on your gauge cluster. I will sell DIY kits for $200.00, which will include the RGB led strips, controller/remote, and wire needed to install this into your car.

Full service is also available for $300.00. I will do all the labor with installing these LED's, paint the needles and do other cosmetic work which also includes replacing the plastic lenses with glass (if needed). For an extra 100 dollars, I will convert your tachometer to a modern air core servo tach that will work with any 4,6 or 8 cylinder engines.

Some sample backlight colors you can choose with a simple push of a button on the remote control.

Below is a video showing some extra features that the controller can do.

All the gauges illuminate red when the gas gauge gets too low. There is also a tachometer sensing circuit in the controller, that will change the background color at different RPM's (you tell me what RPM's, I then calibrate the controller to your settings)
