those are really nice...i like those a lot and if they make those for the tC i would get them for sure. I have seen a lot of crappy indeglo gauges, but those are nice.

IMHO the APC-looking label is stoopid. Dat's one. Two - I am yet to enjoy the stock ones

I think the TC could really use multi-colored guages.. they are very plain right now.

Those are pretty nice. I actually like the look of the stock gauges, I just don't like the amber lighting... I'd prefer blue.

I think the stock gauge is already good enough
I mean if you change the gauge with the blue one, it will missmatch the center console.

I like those a lot. I think the multi-colors would look great with the 10-color 6-disc changer.

How much does something like that run to buy and have installed?

Also, does anyone have any clue as to if it's possible to have 10-color LED's put into the cupholders the way they were ORIGINALLY advertised?

Thanks!

I think the stock gauges look good.. I've had bad luck with indiglo gauges in the past, having burnt out a couple sets.

Rice and very 2 years ago. the stock gauges are much nicer. I always felt putting cheap mods like this into a brand new car just ruins it. But to each his own.

I used to have a 00 Celica GT and it had the amber lights as well. A lot of the celica owners were replacing the LED's under the spedo as well as center console. It's not that expensive and it looks really good especially with the digital gas gauge.

yea changing leds is about all it needs that way when the gauges light up they match the rest of your console.

Ultimate gauge mod would be..... to imitate the Aston Martin DB9 gauges!

Has anyone changed the LEDs in the gauge of a tC yet? If so, what size/type of LEDs do you need? How many do you need? Is the replacement difficult? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Jayme

My tC should be here by Monday im told. If it does come in, I will take it apart that night and count. The dash looks very similar to the celica, so im willing to bet it will be pretty easy to take apart.
