please tell me where u got that needle kit and the blue lights. and can you tell me how?

Post by **matzinm2** » Sat Jun 06, 2009 7:20 pm

for sure, the needle kit is from import intelligence, it's 70 bucks and not really as green as I wanted them to be, but worth it. And the instructions for those come with the kit, VERY tedious; lemme tell you. The blue LEDs in my gauges you mean? Those are simple, your dash comes out wit ha few screws taken out, then unscrew and unplug your cluster and pull it out; behind your cluster there are six brown... um, screw-plug type things that come out with a half turn to the left. Those hold your bulbs, simply put the new LED's (they are 197A wedge bulbs, just pull out the old ones and slide the new ones in) in and screw the little plug-dealys back in. Plug your cluster back in and put your dash back together, your bulbs will work just like the older ones, but not as crappy. I must warn you, if you have the orange paint on your stock needles- orange+blue=opaque, so the needles look quite crappy, what I did (for the needle kit later) was scrape the paint off and repainted the needles using white Testors brand model paint.

That is all.

That's a shame, the regular wedge bulbs go out a LOT faster than the LEDs.

:Edit, Leuthesius, I have done all the work myself on my car, the most I have had done by so called "professionals" was the tires and tire balance.

the lip is from a 94-95 accord and so far i haven't really done too much to the interior...

Your basic altima

Post by **ckyiscool** » Sun Sep 27, 2009 5:06 am

done some things to my altima since my last post

Post by **WideBodyCharlie** » Mon Sep 28, 2009 10:06 am

I was active in the altima world a few years back. I had about every part you could buy at the time, and the cold-air intake was my downfall {hydrolock} But now it is back with a stock 2000 motor and living a new life as a family car.I sold all the performance parts, but it is still lowered a bit and has the old rims at least. it also has a full black leather Katskin interior kit i did right before the motor blew. My wife thinks it's the best car ever after learning to drive a stick.

Charlie:

Hellatight yO, The ladies tend to dig the alty's huh?

DJ: The coolant resevoir behind the passenger headlight unclips and you can pull it out. Muffler was welded on professionally.

And SERU13: What size spacers are you using? Have a fender roll when you're that low?

Post by **matzinm2** » Sat Oct 03, 2009 7:05 pm

And btw the headlights WERE 10,000k HID's, then I got a bad ballast. Right now they're 3000k bug killers, soon to be 6000k with a purple tint. V-LED's FTW!
