<table style=filter:glow(color=Blue)>LEDs</table>I am wondering if anyone on here has done their own LED color change in the instrument cluster and if they have; what info can they share for some one who wants to do their own? What size LED, anything funky to watch out for, etc...?<table style=filter:glow(color=Blue)>LED</table>

Was it you, Icemann? I know you have the brain for it but, it seems like I remember someone here doing it and I cannot find a thread to the effect.

just have bluegauges.com do it. It's somewhere around $125 for it to be done. Not worth the hassle if something goes wrong and by the time you research to find the right led's, purchase them, and any tools you may not already have, it just makes sense to have it done. IMO

I have the equipment, I have the know how, and the sense to know that it is about a ten dollar mod if you do it yourself but, I also know to ask if there is anyone else that has done this before. It makes for a faster job when you research and less down time. I love to ride and hate to have my bike apart any longer than it has to be. This is a rainy day project, lol.

just look for my thread or GixxerHP's thread. We both did it. Not hard just a little time consuming if you have never done it.

They have been doing these led swaps in Puerto Rico for a long time now. Some of the best show Busa's come from there. If you don't believe me then take a trip over there and you will see for yourself. That was the first place I saw this mod and there are many others.
