hello all,

i did my gas/temp & needle to blue conversion no problem

the only thing that got me was i ran out of leds last time so tonite i kinda rushed through everything, everything works

except the little see through halogram piece that goes where the gas/temp is


you have the gas/temp panel...

a think flimsy piece of plastic/hologram type piece.. and the plastic cover that goes on top of it

the plastic/halogram piece i somehow must have gotten fingerprints on cauz the bottom part of my led panel is all dim/not sharp

all my blue leds are lite

so i know i was prolly just rushing and must have touched it by accident

my question is 2 fold

CAN that piece be cleaned... albiet a cloth or some cleaner? i didnt want to try and have the whole thing messed up

2) is there any way i can just buy that piece from david draper or what not?

thanks
Eddie
