The led kit you can get from Hammer. I'll give you the link, the GT stereo is a bit fun I just completed mine last week. Hammer gives you info on doing a GT-S radio. I figured it out from there..
Actually check out this thread from last week, it has all the links and my latest pics...
If you need indepth directions PM me and i'll write some up.

You can order it from me.. will give great deal...
For the AC control area.. there aren't any simple way to change them that has good output..
Useing neon or cold cathod give the good results..
There are install guide somewhere around...

good anyway..

What kind? I did mine with 6" Redline product. It's bright as hell.

It was just a $20 arched neon tube from WALMART.
I broke it apart for just the tube and circuit borad,
wired it into the cig lighter wires... There is a thread on the
install somewhere i'll try to find it..
Found It!!!:applaud:

All i did 4 the needles is use some white finger nail polish on the end's of them. Then I used a white return address sticker on the back and trimmed it to the needle. I figured it would be lighter than paint and have no effect on the needle weight...

The only sticker is on the back & it is bright white, the ends are painted also.. They show up blue during the day, & really bright blue @ night.. PICS below
