    Speedometer tachometer lighting.

    So I was sitting in my electrical class today boring ass class but whatever, I got to thinking about the pathetic bulb that is behind the speedometer I was wondering if there is some mod that people have done to upgrade this. I love the red light but it is just so weak. I was thinking about LED's and such.

    Anyone got ideas?



    PS: I did search and nothing unless I just phail at the interwebbies.:D

            you are SUPPOSED to smack the top of your dash every 1200 miles or so...not use damn high-falutin' LEDs.

            What the hell are you thinking?
