'Tower' LEDS for instrument cluster-- any good? - Page 3 - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

Cheers fourtoes.

Just ordered a set in red and a pair of white HID sidelights for my GTT.

How much is an Australian dollar anyway?

A job for Chaz when they arrive

Sorry, but I can only see blue ones for a Skyline.

andyneed4speed · 28th August 2008, 09:27 PM

Pick the blue one. In the blurb it says "red available as well" - might be other colours for R32/33. Buy them then "send a message to seller" when you're going through checkout/payment and tell him you want red ones or whatever.

That's twice I've educated you in the last 5 minutes - you now know how to post a link as well

Stan · 28th August 2008, 09:43 PM

Thank you oh wise one.

Well, just goes to show that an old dog can teach an older dog new tricks

hyrev · 28th August 2008, 09:59 PM

still waiting to see if anyone has done this to a 34 with white NISMO gauges

666DAN · 29th August 2008, 03:44 AM

Hey everyone, ZPE is my store on ebay

When you say you've got the Nismo cluster in the R34 is it currently backlit orange? Orange is the worst colour to work with as the only option is to go for Red, blue just won't cut it unfortunately.

Hope you guys are liking the lights!

thanks,

Dan

Cheers Dan, ordered mine yesterday, saw the username and wondered if you were on here! Now get to the post office already

LOL

andyneed4speed · 29th August 2008, 05:43 PM

I pointed Dan at this thread last night after ordering a set of red dash LED's and a pair of bright white sidelights off him - he was wondering why he had a few orders for R33's

Cheers mate and yeah, get to the post office

Hey Dan, you can send me my commission later

666DAN · 31st August 2008, 12:26 AM

Yep same deal as last time, discreet wad of cash in a newspaper....swap as we pass on the tube?

andyneed4speed · 1st September 2008, 06:34 PM

Woo Hoo - my LED's are on the way from sunny Oz - thanks Dan

p.s. Hope they're the red ones

Now all I need is a set of instructions of how to remove the dash console from an R34 (different to an R33

)

donk_316 · 2nd September 2008, 02:36 PM

I ordered my set from Dan last night also.

666DAN · 3rd September 2008, 07:48 AM

Red as the blazes of hell!

The R34 is easy to do, the two screws on the underside of the cluster surround, hoik them out, the rest is clipped in place. Then you can access the screws for the cluster.

The triple gauges are easier, put a thin blade screwdriver between the side of the centre vents and the soft plastic surround, carefully pry the vents out (just clipped in) this exposes the 2 screws holding the triple gauge in place.
