Default I did something awesome (IMO)

So... today I found out I didn't have work and I sat down to start a day of homework. Five minutes later I got up and looked for something else to do. I wound up re-reading the bit on here about swapping out overhead lights with LEDs and I kinda came up with an idea I had not seen before. I spent the day swapping out my gauge lights with LEDs... It looks pretty awesome IMO. Take a look and let me know what you think. I can do a writeup on it if anyone is interested.

Oh **** that's pretty badass. I would love a write up. Can you change the color of the LED's and is this budget friendly?

Oh **** your up in College Station, good ****. Hey would you happen to know why my truck gauge doesn't show my RPM's?

Jon is your truck an automatic? If so, then that's why there's no RPM gauge I believe
