Alright folks I just want to know can anyone in the NOVA area do the LED swap for the center console and my gauges?!? I mean i'll pay for your time and the LED's, i'm just not comfortable with gauges...so can anyone get back to me please, thanks in advance!

 

BUMP

 

my brother can. he's an electronics engineer who tests satellite circuitry for a living. the question is whether or not he would! I'll ask him.

 

^^^ You should tell him that people will pay him

 

and not just ppl in va... but md too

 

ok, so he seems interested anyway, but he's hesitant without actually looking at it first, and because he doesn't really have a way to test it. I promised to find him a decent walk-through so he can see what all is involved, so if anyone has a good link, post it up! schematics would be a huge help.

also, how much might it be worth? maybe that would help persuade him.

I want him to do it too so I can get mine done!

 

I would love to have blue LEDs gauges but I am broke tho...

 

I would deff pay him if he does your gauges first off...if all goes well, I will work something out with him...i mean really i know how to take the gauges out and everything else i'm just not fimilar with soilering, so really i would pay him for his time and the solidering part...Let me know ASAP if he is interested, maybe we can all kick back after and get drunk on me haha, HOLLA

 

if you want any tips or have questions,

don't hesitate to ask me

 

Any updates fellas??

 

still looking for a decent walk-through, hopefully with schematics, before he can decide how much it's worth to him. but yeah, he's interested.

I'd have him do mine first, except that I need my car every day and haven't found enough down-time yet to have it done. I'm gonna talk to him about ordering my LEDs soon so I maybe we can do mine over the weekend of the 4th. how fast are you looking to get it done?

 

walk-throughs can be found in the tech section. they should be adequate enough for the novice DIY'er to understand and follow.

the hvac fix made by engifineer is simple to follow, but it helps if you are able to read electrical diagrams.

 

i'm down with this too, if he says he can do it, then my bank account will open ever so slightly for him.....

 

that's good to hear...it's no rush, really. Just want to see if he could get it done, and whenever he has time...i'm actually going to FL in 5 days so i'll be kinda short for awhile haha. So whenever you have time just keep us updated because from the looks of it...alot of people want it done, I got dibbes after yours is done!!!! alright fellas lata!

 

haha.. yeah.. ever so slightly. again, pm me with any questions.. (even about reasonable charges for the labor.. )

don't want your brother to rip you off..

 

s'all good. if you beat him to it, you beat him to it. I know I'll get mine done cheap, so you can't rip me off!

 

BUMP

Any updates fellas???

 

eh, I keep bugging my brother about it, but he doesn't seem too interested. he's worried about breaking somebody's guages and owing them new ones. if I can get him to do mine, maybe he'll see there's nothing to worry about.

 

if you need any tips... i'm just a pm away

 

yeah i can see that...i would be kind of nervious at first but if he did yours correctly first I don't see why a second time wouldn't be faster and easier since it's already been done, and if he would do it and something seems to go wrong that would be on me for allowing him to do it...i wouldn't make him get a new one, because all i really need him to do is the soildering (spell check) because i would take the gauges out and pull the back off so he could work on it...thanks
