I posted the link so he could know exactly how to do it if he already didn't. I tried a yellow led but was very dim, green was decent blue was really bright

yeah I searched a lot of articles on installing this but I kept reading things about the right wire color and wasnt sure. Im using a red led, I think it should turn out good. I should be wiring it up this weekend on the count of my dad wanting to help me "splice the wire". like its brain surgery or something.

the red looks sweet at night it fills the gauge cluster with a huge glow. nice and bright even in day.
