diggerdan11 Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 So my fuel gauge went out on my truck, so I sent it off to Steve (Silverado777) aka the GM Gauge Guy http://www.gmgaugeguy.com/ He fixed me up, and I also had him add Red LEDs and White Needles. It think it looks awesome! Steve also added a piece of red gel sheeting that he put on the display so it would be Red, even though he tried to convince me not to because it would be hard to see. He was right, it is impossible to see during the day time, and really hard to see at night, so I will have to look into another solution. Day Time: Day time with lights on full: Night time with lights on full: Night time with lights on dim: As you can see you cant see the display at all Eventually im going to do an LED swap in the rest of my dash so everything matches.

diggerdan11 Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 Lookin good bud! Glad you like them! Yeah I really like it. Im probably going to take it apart tonight and pull the red sheet off so I can at least see. Then I will look into another solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSenvy Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Looks very clean. Only thing is yeah, get rid of the film covering the Info display Imo. Steve has these clusters down... hands down the most even Non hot spotted LED clusters around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diggerdan11 Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I fixed the issue with not being able to see my display, but it looks like i need to fix my voltage needle, it somehow did not get back in the right place My biggest pet peeve with the GM cluster (Besides the fact that the motors go out) is that the light that shows your hi beams are on is so friking bright! Even if you turn your dash lights all the way off, there is this bright blue light and is very annoying. My 03 is super bright, but they must have fixed that issues by 05 because my SS was not even close to being as bright as my 03 (Same with my dads 06). I know others with 03's and 04's who also complain about it, I even know a guy who put tape on his cluster to block off the bight light. So I took a small chunk of the red sheet I cut out and put it over the hi-beams on light. Its very dark, but not annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synyster_SS Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Dan, if you have a buddy at a GM dealership, have your instrument panel cluster calibrations checked, there is a calibration update to lessen the brightness/intensity of the high beam telltale. I know this because I updated all of my trucks calibrations when I first got it two years ago. The cluster looks great, I need to send all of my interior shit to Steve to have the LED conversion done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NipRing Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) I'm guessing your cluster came to me first. Cause when i plugged it in (at Steve's request) i thought the gear indicator was burned out it was so dark. But today two of my white leds have started flickering . http://vidmg.photobucket.com/albums/v230/nip-ring/SS/575E5CE7-3EDE-4BFD-AC81-236BCA898F75_zpsiytib4tx.mp4 Edited October 12, 2014 by NipRing (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
