Scott Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Thanks to Si (Heckler) i now have a more modern looking blue dash. The pics don't really do it justice as i had to use the nightime setting on my camera. It honestly isn't as bright as it looks lol. I have also had the dash painted gloss black but you won't be able to see that properly until i take some pics in daylight. Anyway, piccy. I just need to sort out the footwell lights.

mplavery Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 look great!! i really wanna do mine soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Nice That looks SO much better than the normal green blur. Far more modern. The balance between brightness levels seems better than some older conversions posted here. Are any of the lights over-bright at all?

stealth Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Very nice touch mate, I like that alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Not at all, the way he has done it they dull down when the lights are on so nighttime they are a little duller than daytime which is spot on. When the lights are turned off the LED's are unbelievably bright at night but during the day they are spot on. Here is a pic without nightime function turned on, sorry about the quality but you get the idea of what it actually looks like.

Opps sorry yeah yours looks cool too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Ive gone down the bulb route before myself. I went out on a limb hoping the LED's would be better.... they are, miles better Scott =op Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Oh sorry buddy, If you do a search for Heckler, he does the whole kit for you. Basically he will send you all the parts already modded, all you do is swop yours out with his and send him yours as a replacement (for him to mod for the next person). Cost was £110 including the temp control mod. If you notice on the std dash the temp control doesn't light up. Its a pain at night, anyway, mine now does Scott =op Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I took mine to the local bodyshop and got it painted. If you wan't a completely new dash you could speak to Nic on here. He gets all supra bits at good prices and ships them over direct from Japan. It just modernises it all a little. Scott =op Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Some pics of the painted dash Needs a good polish. Not cleaned it since i put it in. Going to have to keep a duster in the car at all times now lol. Scott =op Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
