Thanks for the help man. Just some feedback, a few mentioned the louder audio (this is true) should lower it so we can hear you and also keep your playback in normal, lastly, people really appreciate when you link the items/tools you use in the description. Just a few tips, thanks!
Thanks, Sir for doing this video. Will definitely get the leds and soldering kit you've mentioned. Don't mind the other lazy people's comments. Just read people infos there
If you have soldering skills, you should be able to do this with no issues. But most vehicles have little bulbs where you just replace with a twist lol
I've been trying to buy another instrument cluster speedometer just because these LED lights are so hard to fund. Thank you for the link I swear I was looking for hours/days. Only have one light out check engine and I need it to pass a smog in Cali. Problem is that no one will do it or has any help so I'm gonna have to do it myself. Bought a bunch of sample circuits. What solder metal do I need for this?
Glad to hear this helps! Sorry for the poor quality of this video. Here's a link of the solder I used www.amazon.com/dp/B06XZ31W3M/ref=cm_sw_r_u_apa_i_.8J.FbD4ZRWJ7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
So I tried this out and thankfully all the lights are working, but they are still amber color. The lcd behind the odometer changed. Speedometer and rpm still amber color. What am I missing?
Thanks for the reply. I changed all the lights you changed in the video. The speedometer for example, I changed the three lights around the pin that holds the needle. After putting everything back together the needle is brighter and at the end I can see the light that projects out is now white. But all of the numbers are still amber. Any thoughts on why that may be?
@@adlydiab1001 if you replace all light around the needle then they should have changed. There's a clear plastic piece that distribute the light from the needle lights that you can check too. But ideally if you change all of the needle lights then the numbers should be the same color as well.
Great video.. question tho... My Diff Lock Indicator light doesnt light up .. will these LEDs replace those indicators also.. eg. check engine, DiffLock, 4Lo, ABS, Etc. indicators or is this only for Speedometer, RPM, Fuel etc.
Nice video I had been looking for some shots of the back of the instrument cluster particularly the stock Optitrion cluster. If I’m not mistaken they don’t use them anymore, the lights on the new clusters don’t seem as nice.
This was my first ever RUclips video and I filmed it on my gopro. I apologize about the poor quality of this footage. Feel free to ask any questions tho. Thanks.
Hey Jake, You can get the LED lights here, 20 pieces of PLCC-2 Surface Mount LEDs, 3528 Size SMD SMT LED - Cool White www.amazon.com/dp/B01ETCT28A/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_HA14DbSHW1DMM
I was hoping there was some good information here, but I just can't get past the horrible music, shitty audio, VHS level video, and doublespeed sections. What a mess.

Yes, will remember that on my next project. Thanks and hopefully this video helped you out!
I'd recommend for future videos, to bring the music audio down a little bit. So its easier to hear you.
I appreciate your recommendation, sir! Will definitely keep that in mind for the next project which is coming soon!
@@Nashharis8758 Old people can't keep up!
@@iSaint06 my bad that haha was my first video and shot on my gopro action camera 😂

That looks hard asf

Do you know if the stepper motors are soldered on as well? My needles only work half the time, thinking I need to replace them.
Yes, they are. A bit more complicated than the lights obviously.
Hello, good morning, how much do you charge me to do that to my 2007 runner?

Thanks Bro, you're awesome man!
So I tried this out and thankfully all the lights are working, but they are still amber color. The lcd behind the odometer changed. Speedometer and rpm still amber color. What am I missing?
Those are different light. You'll need to change those as well and to any color you want.

Would you be willing to do this on my 06 4runner if i was to pay you to do it and provide you with the leds?
How much would you charge to this if I sent you my instrument panel?
Hey bud, I won't be able to sorry.
Great video.. question tho... My Diff Lock Indicator light doesnt light up .. will these LEDs replace those indicators also.. eg. check engine, DiffLock, 4Lo, ABS, Etc. indicators or is this only for Speedometer, RPM, Fuel etc.
Yes, these LEDs work for all of the lights on the panel, all of warning lights too but I kept my warning lights original.
You got Skilz to pay the Bill$ brother!!!
Thank you bro!
Nice video I had been looking for some shots of the back of the instrument cluster particularly the stock Optitrion cluster. If I’m not mistaken they don’t use them anymore, the lights on the new clusters don’t seem as nice.
Thank you, too bad the quality of the camera isn't the greatest. But I agree with you on the new ones.
Could you do a video on the leds for the 4wd control, cup holder and back window switch
I will certainly consider it. I've been very busy lately but as soon as I get some free time, I'll make a quick video.
@@Nashharis8758 thank you, they link you posted was for a 20 leds was that enough
@@LuuZilla yes, I only ended up using 18 but you can certainly order different colors if you want.
On 4th gens the window switch, 4wd control, and cup holder lights are not little LED chips, just a bulb replacement for those. Mini lamp bulbs
@@Tater_277 correct, they are the 3mm bulbs.
does each needle have an LED? i wanna change mine to a red needle
The needles are redish color already. It's the amber lights that's making it look orangish. But the each have 1 LED light.
@@Nashharis8758 thanks for replying
@@tee228 of course
What was the temp of the soldering iron when you did this job?
300 but the most important part is you need to make sure the iron isn't burning the board. If you've ever soldered before, then you're good.
Hey man thanx for the video! Imma try it out! I subscribed btw.
Thank you and good luck to you sir!
I'm about to send you my 2005 4runner sr5 v8 so i can get the same radio,led control unit and the led speedometer done. I'm super jealous right now
I'd be happy to help!
Are the led lights dimmable?
Yes.
Man your video is making me visually and audibly sick motion sensitive I guess, come on man some of us need that information
This was my first ever RUclips video and I filmed it on my gopro. I apologize about the poor quality of this footage. Feel free to ask any questions tho. Thanks.
How much do you charge to do this? I'd love to have mine 03 done.
Hey, pm me at Nash.nayyef@gmail.com please. Thanks.
@@Nashharis8758 how much did you charge to do 2005
@@Nashharis8758 i really like the way it looks thanks for sharing
@@heribertoestrella1869 I wouldn't have time to do this for people, sorry. But it is very easy, just need some little soldering skills.
Alot of work for different color cluster. But looks sick tho.
Once you get a hang of it, it's pretty easy man.
How many Leds did you end up using?
I used 18 but the pack comes with 20 in them.
where should i buy the leds frommmm
Hey Jake,

You should do some and sale them I’d buy seems too difficult to put it together
Sure, send me your year make and model via email at Nash.nayyef@gmail.com
Appreciate the video but that music makes it unwatchable, especially when trying to follow a complex process.
I know. It was one of my first videos, and I wasn't aware it would be so loud.
@@Nashharis8758Didn’t mean to sound harsh and meant no offense. I know making videos takes a lot of effort.
@bluesky0762 No, I appreciate the feedback! I agree with you haha
Dude! Cut back on the caffeine!
This Video makes me not want to do it lol.
I know, this was my first project ever and filming with my gopro. Sorry I couldn't be more of a help to you. Thanks.
Music sucks.
Thanks for the feedback.
I was hoping there was some good information here, but I just can't get past the horrible music, shitty audio, VHS level video, and doublespeed sections. What a mess.
Thank you for your feedback. Just a quick tip tho, you can always set the playback speed at 0.75x and should be good to go.
@@Nashharis8758 I'll give it another go.thanks
