This is interesting I consider almost all the regulars on here a friend. Hell if I one day have some free time and cash I plan to meet a lot of the guys on here. Making friends on here is a very good idea then you will actually have someone to help you when your car dies. May you have a nice visit here but please don't act stupid or disrespectful there have been many like you that have come and gone so sorry if we come on strong but once you have proven yourself to be a good member you will be fine.
I work at a autoshop...Im a computer automotive technician. I dont NEED anyone or there help on this...I may want help...but I never need it for my car. So get over it...

2.Then what are you doing on a forum? You don't need us that's cool man... but we don't NEED you bashing members on here. You in no way gave a constructive criticism or contributed to Phi's vehicles so you are kind of out of line there.
3. Get over you're self
Phi the grille is looking pretty sweet there bro. How is the hood coming along? Have you test fitted the intake yet?

You dont need us, but you're looking for "ideas.". So how does giving random comments on others hard work fit into all of this?
Secondly, you're quick to respond to everyones replies. You're clearly here to cause problems...

Phi when you get a chance let me know where to pick up the LED's for the cluster backlight ... i might end up biting the bullet on that mod.

I'll let you know... I'm still searching my old car stuff see if I can remember the site. I'll have to take the dash apart first to see what size bulbs we use for the dash. maybe Karo can jump in and post me a pdf of the dash and the bulbs.

hey mikey if you want to do your dash red you can use the OEM red bulb they sell at rmeuropean and switch all your lights with this bulb I believe.
Heres the link to the bulb.

also found some on ebay I searched under LED dash and make sure they look like the OEM bulb. I believe they're T5 size bulbs.

I definitely want to change my dashboard colors to blue or maybe even red. And if I can do it for $4 then I'm definitely down. Its just too ugly of a color, I mean at least Audi's get a nice red dashboard.

Dont you love those ones that love to show how stupid they are lol

How did you find it was the T5 bulb Phi?
Those purple ones should be sick ... now I'm not sure if i want purple or red ... maybe i'll go like the infinity G37 with purple back light and re needles ... or blue backlight and red needles like the VW R32's they look kinda purple when mixed together. I'll move on this once i get a chance

The facelift model dash lights aren't surface mount led's? For those with the pre-facelift, you can't easily change the color of your cluster because they they are surface mount led's behind the gauge cluster. It's a pain in the butt to do because taking the face off requires removing all the needles.
