That looks pretty damn good man! Any chance you could make one of those for a Gen 1 lightning and if so any idea what it would cost? I may be interested! I may definitely be interested in those though when I get my hands on another mustang. Thanks! Erik D. '94 white lightning

I am sure I can do it . If you could get your hands on another Lightning gauge cluster and send it to me I can take a look at it and get it done. Prob. take me about three days of working on it after I come home from work to finish it. Let me know. I am the only one that I know that has been able to pull this kind of conversion off. You really have to see them in person to get the full effect. I convert the Headlight/Fog light switches to matching blue aswell as the Hazard/Defrost switch. In my car I even did the A/C panel with blue Led's so it is still black during the day but when I turn my headlights on the controls all light up blue , except for the middle temp control I installed a red light so the hot side of it would be red. I also converted a Cobra Snake Keychain to a dash emblem to replace the pony that was on the dash. I drilled a hole in the eye and back lit it with a blue LED so at night the snake eye lights up with the parking lights. If you was pictures leave me your e-mail and I will send them to you and you can post them for me like you did a long tim ago. I have a bunch of new pictures of my new motor and car I would like to e-mail you since you never go a picture of the car itself.

I think we need to talk. Wanna retrofit the '05 style multicolor dash setup into the Foxes and SN-95's? I do microcontroller design in my spare time and would love to be able to integrate some of that into a project like yours.

Also, there are places to get the blue LEDs for *much* cheaper (5mm 5500mcd or 3mm 2000mcd blue for 1.17ea for qty 10-49).

That instrument cluster is wild... I like it.

I am pretty happy with my white face conversion using all blue lights inside the cluster. Not as cool, but gets the job done now.

Oh yeah, I have to thrown in the biblical statement, "If only I had the money, I would buy it in a heartbeat".

Nice setup.
