Sooner, most likely over later, I will replace my dash that has a little minor cracking like most 240's. This is 1/3 of "whats wrong" with my 240 also including a rusted SE Hatch and a slightly damaged fender, that is moreso the rare part, no mechanical issues yet *Knock on Wood*.

Well I was thinking, when I pull the dash I had planned to add Hyper White LED Gauge Cluster Bulbs that I found at autolumination.com, while the dash was out. Well I had a thought... What would you guys think about Tinting/Smokeing the Plastic Cover protecting the Cluster? When on, seeing that it will have LED's, it will be perfectly visable when running & when off it will be Black. Also when I go Ka-T, I will have [Imperial?] Defi Gauges (White Display), which as most do/should/or now know, are Tinted and have LED lighting that peaks through when on, so on top of the custom idea I will also have a theme going.

So what you guys think of my idea??
