Whatever editing that is deemed necessary to meet the criteria and format for permanent archiving of your thread in the Tech Article section, if approved.
Understood. However, we'll need full-sized pics within the thread (rather than thumbnails). If you post those within your initial post, that will expedidite the process.
You might want to read some of the other permanent Tech Article threads to get an idea about layout and pics.
Thank you.
I posted in the wrong spot, I'm very sorry. If you like we can work on making this a tech article, I thought it was a basic tech forum. Thank you for your time.

I wish I was electronically savvy enough to do this, and to bad you dont live in So. Cal..
Just overnight your dash/AC/and Compass...it takes me a football game to do and I'll overnight them back to you. I use to do this for the Scion's I worked on.

No problem. Benefit of the doubt is always given to the newbies.
Yes, I look forward to seeing this eventually becoming a permanent submission to the Tech Article section. Drop me a PM when your initial posts are ready (pics, layout, etc.) and I'll move it on over there.

Re: DIY LED Dash Swap: Gauge Cluster, AC, and Compass
Very Nice .. I have done this one a '99 Elise ... It was also amber. Blue looked so much better. I think if I was to do it again on the FJ, I'd either go RED or GREEN.
REP to ya.
Re: DIY LED Dash Swap: Gauge Cluster, AC, and Compass
I can't ever imagine tearing into my dash that way....I am super deluxe jealous of someone that can though. Very cool thread...I am impressed. If I was to choose a color I think I would go with red....Very neat.
