I had my cluster and heater unit redone by O.L.T and it turned out AWESOME. I think it completely refreshed the look of the dash. I had bright white done with green needles to match my greddy gauges.
I have the motor out of the car so the battery is disconnected, but I'll try to hook it up so I can get some pictures posted.

Wait, are you asking about the custom job like by Lextech OR just plug in some off the shelf LEDs

those little LED bulbs you can buy online and plug into the dash are nasty. I would not recommend spending money on those dingy little units. If you're going to do it, do it with class.

I did the SMD LED blood red needles and 32 backlight in white. I love it, cept..it's still too dim! OLT I need another upgrade! Maybe 64 backlight this time?
