i did my gas/temp gauge awhile back and got bored of looking at the green tach/speedo so i did the samething with the cluster. i think it came out great. looks even better in person
Is it hard? How long did it take? I think what I want to do might be a different task because I'd probably have to remove color filter, but I was thinking of doing mine white like the new Accord has.
i got that too, my daytime is fine, i see well with the windows up ( dark tints ) and with the windows down. People that ride with me never complain, its very visible, but then again u cant be too picky, at certain angles the sun hits str8 on the dash, and theres nothin u can do about that anything transparent with light behind it wont be that visible when exposed directly to the sun, and its not like ya ll dont know what speeds you goin if that were to happen. I guess that the sacrifice some people chose to make.

look at your redline. i cut out the blue paper around that so it shows perfect.
it isnt that bad of a job. you have to take the cluster out and take it apart. then what i did was cut each layer out and then tape it to the back of the face place and with a razor cut out everything i didnt want to be blue (redline, SRS light....) and then i put the next layer on and did the same. i have 4 layers on my gauge and 4 on my gas/temp and clock.
how come your clock is on the other side of the gas/temp? jdm cluster also? how nervous were you when you had to cut holes in your dash? haha i almost crapped myself when i did it LOL
yes, that's a JDM fuel/temp cluster, i'm planning on moving it all the way to the right and install a widescreen LCD where the clock is right now.
Cutting up that dash wasn't easy....that was the first time i ever used a dremmel. I was hella scared and took me like 40 minutes to cut that sh*t......smoke and debris everywhere. I almost regretted it until i cleaned it all up and hooked up that speaker. i'm waiting to install the 6x9 and i'll have the full JDM DSP 9 speaker setup
