Dude, I have to mention it's $150 per set. Gauges is $150 OR center console for $150, if you get both done you may be able to work out a deal. Might I also add this guy's work is top-notch; I'm gettin all my lights done up in red, and getting that crap-*** stock orange colour OUTTA HERE!

For the especially handy civic owners this guy's services are redundant. THis is for the benefit of those who, like me, are crap with any kind of tool (as my frozen-condensation headlights will attest). If you can do it yourself, good for you. If you're chicken$hit like me, then you may want to look into this.

Looks cool in the pic. I wanted to do this a while ago but I want to spend my cash on other things right now. Thanks for posting though.

guess your right, as for the gauges I think indiglo gauges would look more wicked then just changing the light

Pimp Daddy K is doing my console, cruise control, and power window switch in red, and helping me wire my interior neons but I am going to try to get some custom reverse-EL-glo gauges in red as well (I posted separately about this), so when I get my OBX c0ckpit trim I can look and feel like some sort of Honda pimp. Then maybe the trizzotches will respect me.

looks good, but this guy actually replaces the bulbs with led's... which are brighter and crisper.. and change all your lights. i think $150 is a fair price..., most of it is just for the parts, the rest is for the plane ticket here...


compare this


to this

I'll be at the meet with my civic. Right now I'm driving my accord. The engine is still in this person's car.. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] but I will be taking it from him and installing it on mine. It's not an RSX engine or anything but a stock 7thgen civic engine also. But I have plans for my own engine while it's out of the car [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] tweak...tweak!!

Thats true that LEDs bulbs are brighter but they don't cost that much.
also for the $150, how come that involves his plane ticket? what does that have to do with the work being done, granted he can't do unless he flies here but that shouldn't factor into the pricing, anyways, i guess he won't budge on this price so no point arguin

Well yeah he's pretty firm on the price. He is going to incur costs not just from the plane ticket, but he will need to eat, and we are trying hard to find him a place to crash; otherwise he has hotel costs. He is not really doing this to make $$, but to fund his visit over to GTA. Again, anyone interested, I am the main contact, so hit me up. Thanks again folks.

Depending what you want done, an afternoon. As well, if you are a busy little dude like I am and can do without your centre console for a day, you can leave it with him to work on then come back to have it installed after work/school etc., that way you still have your car albeit with a gaping hole in the middle.

it'll take just a few hours to complete. so you can drop off your console around noon and pick it up just before dinner, or whatever best suites your schedule.

also, the brightness can be manipulated. if you want them as bright as the pic, thats how i usually do them. but if you didn't want them as bright, that can be done too.


other colors, such as red, green, hyper white, etc...are also available.
the process does not involving masking your current stock led's with colored film...it involves replacing the led's entirely, and in some cases, upgrading the resistors on your circuit board. $150 is a price i had agreed on for this offer.....but normally i charge 200-225 for the guys out here.
for pics of work that i've done, you can visit the gallery forum on Text
