changing gauge cluster color

trying to change the color of my gauge cluster to blue, i have the LED bulbs, and i have already messed up one cluster trying. i was hoping to find someone experienced to take the flim off and such

 

Honestly if u have blue LED's they will over power the film just fine.

 

I see another cluster phuck in the near future.

That one dude that was interested in Readymix's sexuality did his in purple, and it worked, I recal him saying it was quite a lot of work. Was his name Dan? TurboTurtle I believe.

 

Just get some fine grit sand paper and a dental pick and take your time on it, then you shouldn't have any problems. That's how i did mine.

 

yea i tried it on my old cluster and ****ed it up

 

How did you do that. It was magical!

 

I've had pretty good success with a pack of Q-Tips and nail polish remover. When finding remover, get one that is mild and avoid 100% Acetone. 100% Acetone will destroy the plastic face. Also, make sure you're only scrubbing off paint behind the numbers/dashes and not the whole gauge. Even though the face is black plastic, it's somewhat opaque. This is especially true if you're using very bright LED's behind it, the light will bleed through a little.
And yes, changing the gauge clusters takes quite a bit of time. I averaged 6 hours per conversion when I did a few.
