Rich.2211 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I love the white LED's, fancy some for mine. Have to be honest though and say the clocks look a little patchy i.e brighter in some places than others. Still a huge improvement though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 Coming along nicely mate Thanks mate... can't wait to see the final result when the dash is going to be back again... also I am waiting for the seat rails to be ready this week! I love the white LED's, fancy some for mine. Have to be honest though and say the clocks look a little patchy i.e brighter in some places than others. Still a huge improvement though Yes I have the same feeling about the dials but I dont know if ther's any way to change it, I think that the light of a typical bulb is more dissolving than the light of a LED. One other issue I had is that the buttons of the heater (because of the age of the plastic) with the white backlight they are taking different shades of yellow (it's not that vissible to the photos but is really ugly in reality) Heckler was happy to send him the heater back and change the buttons backlit from white to red.. so hopefully next week I will have this one as well!

Better idea for the buttons... just replace them with brand new Toyota items. You can purchase the actual buttons alone from Mr. T and they will have no yellowing at all, shouldn't be expensive either as they are literally little plastic covers that just pop off. Lots of the U.S Supra guys do it and I plan on doing mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTurtleshead Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Maybe they've been recovered poorly? I wouldn't have anything else but Recaro Speed's (Or Stockers) in my Supra! Very comfortable seats. They look very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_ufo Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 nice seats mate. Do you have any updates on the dash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 (edited) They are looking really nice for sure, I just think that the driving position is a bit higher then it should be and that's annoying... i'll give a try to modify them a bit... Regarding the dash panels they are going to be ready during this week Something else... I want to change the low beam bulbs to something more white and less yellowish, as well as the running lights and the number plate lights... would you recommend anything ?

listy Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Get an HID kit, or buy halogen bulbs for the headlights. For the number plate lights, you will need to get LED bulbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend a slim ballast. I have replaced my plate bulbs with LED ones from ebay, that's another simple job. I cant remember the model number of the plate bulb but i'm sure someone will know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
