Changed My 33 Climate Control Lights To Blue(pics)


Recommended Posts

5

they're really not that much more expensive than the ones you buy at autobarn...$14 for 2...so $7 each or $10 for 1... not much difference :D

yeah ur right...just bought 5 x white and 5 x blue for both cars...should be fine. My issue is the directional light from the LEDS...this should help even it out..

nice...I'm still waiting for mine to be delivered. looks like it will be good.

and a picture of mine using normal style led's...note the brighter spots...the bits that look dull are pretty much as bright as a normal cluster, they just look duller because of the brighter spots...

i need some1 to help me with this ;)

Its VERY easy to do mate.

take out the cluster, flip it round, take out the 5 stock lights and plug in some parker style LED's

put it back in and you're done :)

wowo good results with the new style leds. The other pics resemble efforts I have done before and I just went back to globes cos it pissed me off too much. Should get mine this week and I will take a pic. I got white and blue...blue for the line and white for the FTO as I have blue/red dials...will look awsome.

Changed mine from regular LED's to the ones from America today...no bright/dull spots. completely even across the cluster.

Only downside to them is they are a Slightly lighter blue to the ones I had in there, which matched my gauges/headunit perfectly...but the new ones aren't far off :D

Photos: These are the American LED's

Nice even spread. :)

compared to the old normal LED's in the same dash...

and here's the new ones showing the slight color difference to my gauges

Not very noticeable :D

nice1 dezz...yeah I took a pic and mine look they same as yours but in real life I rekcon they looks better.

At least ur guages are blue...mine matched the stock lighting color...so i have to change them now :D

pretty sure its not the LED's kon. mine were like $14 for 2 (so hardly cheaper than yours)...

its the layout of the light spreading plastic on the back of the cluster

so it was the low quality LED's u had in before?

so it was the low quality LED's u had in before?

i wouldnt call them low quality. just a different layout.

justin had everyday single Narva brand LED's and i had a different brand with a triple LED layout on the top.

both showed exactly the same light spread...the ones from america have a better design

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
