couple hours, just etched the boards myself and soldered away. the most amount of time was spent figuring out the layout and componet values.

You can get orange LEDs

Cool thing with these LEDs is that the dimmer works to a certain level so you can dim them down a bit. I went with the blu

any hints or tips needed just ask away, playing with the LEDs is pretty cool.

yes and thanks for the ability to ask or hint

i have recently had to replace one bulb from the dash and it sort of snowballed, luckily there was a juckyard with a few of these, so i grabbed all the bulbs i could and they sort of poppped right in..however...

can we make a black light dash... meaning phosphorouse numbers and a phosporouse needle set to have the GLOWING BACKROUNDS. as i just dont like any direct lights...

which is why the orange/red is soo great... our eyes NEVER FATIGUE in red light...
which is why the red lights are mounted in every military submarine and fighter jets...and most other high end visual products...like our bimmers ..

but again the black light idea is a CAPITOL IDEA... if you work on that and sell it,,, we will buy it...and love you for taking our petty cash off our hands for your effort and ability...
thanks my engineering cronie... its been fun being your production manager...
