I hate to bring this back from the dead, but in the link of Toni's led interior lights, what gauge faces are in that car?

Wrong gauges, i attached a pic of the ones i was referring to. I read the post on the sheets, and I wouldn't even know where to get them from today.

damn dude that is sexy, not gonna lie.
ive been thinking bout doing some lighting to my 3k. i want to put neon underneath and i think the only color that i can pull off (w/o the car looking gay) is blue on my black sl.
was it hard to do the interior? if you dont mind me asking, how much did it cost you to do the work?

Warning! This is not a job for the impatient types (like me).
Parts were maybe $150 including gauge faces. Labor = many late nights after work in a cold garage in the winter.
See pages 1 & 2 of this thread.

Next project is Led lighting for outside. ( grill? & exhaust?)

thanks!

dude, how did u attach the lights to the bottom by ur feet? i have lights there and i can't find a way to attach them so i just rigged a system of zip ties so it dangles there.
did u use glue?

I just let mine dangle. THey are seated between the bracket and other wires/things. I planned to mount them properly on the existing mounting bracket. Just haven't gotten around to it. Believe it or not, they've never moved in a year!

The main gauge cluster are just gauge faces off ebay I believe. They came with the car when I got it.

second part is getting the bulbs for the gauges. anyone know if there is a specific style i have to get? a link to a place that sells them would be nice too.
