The blue on the display is great at night but awful during the day, I am going to change to white lights. The needles have been painted a yellow with blue lights, I am going to change to yellow lights. Thank you
@@mk3theripper67 it is, but there are some limitations. Each display across each device is slightly different. I changed all the back lights to blue, the speedo and rev counter display look blue, but are hard to read in the day time. The climate control has an orange tinge, possibly on the lens, I heard someone state they used acetone to clean it off. As for the backlights I have been told that white is the best colour
@@hyphensclassics Actually, I also want to change everything to white because it just looks more classic to me. I find the blue too playful, and I don’t like that. I would have gone with white anyway, but thanks for your quick response. I also want to swap the dials for black ones.😇👌
If you have never done soldering before and don’t have the right equipment, then probably not. However, the point in my channel is to encourage people to have a go. My suggestion would be to buy a spare switch set or ac panel and then try to swap the LED’s On that. If it works then try again. Get some practice on old second hand parts

I have not got back to fixing that yet. The reason will be due to one of them, the first inline from the power source, is not mounted properly. Either the contacts are not connecting or it is around the wrong way. You would need to check to see if there is a viable reason for the issue. Try to meter out the problem or just remove them all and try again.
This looks so cool! I'd want the on-board computer screen blue as well, and the needle would look better in red, but it's still absolutely striking!

Would it be about the same work on a 2010 coop s? I alr did this for my 98 ranger but that was very easy
I would say fairly similar. The dash comes away a little different, but there is still just a speedo in behind it from what I know
Nobody can answer my question about whether it’s possible to change the orange display color as well? Help!!!

@@mk3theripper67 well good luck! I have white LED’s to replace the blue behind the displays.
Let me know how you get on!
so would you not recommend for somebody that's never done anything like this before?

@@hyphensclassicsdo you mean that all the warning lights are a different type of LED?
@@mertcapkin7263 no not all. Most in the dash are the same. Things like the lights in the tyre pressure switch, heated seat switch (if you have them)
Why the red leds on number 7 and 8 didnt work? i have same problem
