Nice. I really like that line from autometer, but i'm sad they don't offer more options in them otherwise I would have ended up with them.

It looks very much like the OE gauges. I actually bought it used from Thunderstruck. The only bummer to the deal is that the led is not replaceable so I can't make it match the other blue lights in my gauges etc.. Not really a big deal for me. I opted not to connect the light at all.

Well if you ever decide to change it and get additional gauges, check out speedhut.com it's where i ordered mine from. about the closest thing i could ever find and 100% customizable to order.

Thanks!!! I feel like I'm pretty much done with it now. I'm super happy with it.

Pretty sure I missed it. What did you use to paint the spoiler below the bumper and how is it holding up?

It's regular base/clear urethane. The spoiler was new so the only prep was to clean it and spray adhesion promoter on it. It's held up great.

I realize that you guys have seen it a million times but I'm an LED beginner so bear with me.

I started working on the dash and doors today. Blue to match the JVC head unit and the blue interior...

Pretty happy with it so far. I did all 4 doors also but I didn't have the correct bulb for the power mirror switch. I took it apart but that bulb is not like anything I have. More research on that one I suppose. Apparently there is also something going on with the light in the driver door lock button because I can't get it to work with an led or a regular light.

I also changed the thermostat and the sending unit for the temp gauge. Discovered that the old thermostat was stuck open so apparently the 120 degrees that I was seeing on the gauge was really the engine temp. Seems like it runs better now that it actually comes up to temp. Hopefully changing the fuel pump tomorrow.

I know this was many years ago, but however is there any chance if you know what size the bulbs are? Im wanting to do mine but it says there is 3mm(T1),4mm, and 5mm(T-1 3/4). Also absolutely love the truck!

Your welcome! I thought id take a longshot lol. They were just plug and play though right? The only thing ive ever saw on here says it has to be soldered.
