Changed the Tachometer
Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2008 4:31 pm
I grew very tired of the yellowish cheap look of the back lighting of my tach as well as the lovely chrome bezel
so...
rattlecan action
and threw in 4 green LED's to match the interior lighting
I need to throw in two more LED's to get it completely lit, the only 12volt LED's I could find weren't very bright and are very directional.
Some day I will hack into it some light the needle.
OR
I'm actually considering just tearing the electronics out and wiring it for a sequential LED system in the dash... no numbers, just 1LED for each 1k RPM's and a shift light. That'd be the way to go. Stupid Ricer tach.
