Ordered different bulbs and it's no longer green !

For those who don't know last Wednesday I spent 3 hours meticulously putting blue transparent pieces of film behind the gauge face, on top of the clear plastic to convert my stock gauges to look like my Cobalt gauges.

I DID NOT WANT TO USE BLUE LED's because LED's cause hotspots (brighter in certain areas) and would make the RED LINE look purple. So that is why I took all the time to put the blue transparent film in.

After I installed it, it was green as hell because the stock bulbs were yellow. I replaced them with "white light" bulbs I got from Macewen which turned out the be yellow as hell as well.

SO FINALLY, I got in today some bulbs I ordered off ebay and they work ! Here's the pics:

and since my bottle-opener is now controlled by the switch next to the Nitrous gauge (which used to control the exhaust cut-out) I installed this switch for the exhaust cut-out:



What do you guys think?

Next I will convert the Gear indicator and the light in the exhaust cut-out switch and it will all be blue !

Here's my car BTW:

 

pretty cool

 

Nice job dude looks clean. I know all about the hot spots with leds. It took me awhile to fix that, anyway looks great.

 

How did you fix it? Any pics?

I ask because I would still like these to be brighter...

 

i fixed mine by taken a cotton ball. rip a lilttle little peace off it and put it in the hole in front of the led

 

No pics but all I did was solder like 6 single leds into a web and drilled holes around the sides of the gauge cluster and mounted them in places the needed more light.

EDIT: I do have pics lit up, after I fixed it, that I took with my phone.





They are brighter than in the pics.

 

Nice work!!
