got ballsy and ripped my cluster apart to clear the needles. I also got LED bulbs from v-leds.com. Had an extra one so I popped it in my odometer light socket without clearing the red ****, just to see what it would do. Works perfectly fine even without clearing the red filter.

Got bored when I went to snap that picture and snapped a bunch of my lighting mods. Enjoy:
My interior. Blue dash lights. Blue cluster. Blue needles in cluster. Blue ignition switch light. Blue LEDs in vents. Alpine deck has blue lights. I'm blue. da ba de. lol
LED Brake light bulb. I also have the same in my turn signals. They do get brighter when I apply the brakes.
At an angle
Cold Cathode bars lighting up the trunk. Trunk is unfinished because I'm lazy.
Looking at the CCFL tubes
Mtec 3300k high beams, TSX retro (55W, 6000k D2S bulbs) low beams
The headlights. 6000k CCFL angel eyes, 6000k LED Parking lights. 6000k/Amber switchback LED turn signals
If you don't know what I mean by switchback.. White lights turn off and flash amber when the turn signal/hazards are activated.

Yes, for the 6 piston fronts and rears. You can even get the 4 piston fronts and single floating rears for about $1400.
They're all over eBay now. I got a deal on mine because I had to wait a few months for Wilwood to work the kinks out of the new forgings with the 6 pistons. They took $500 off and threw in the drilled rotors (another $200), parking brake cables, braided lines and adjustable proportioning valve.
They work great (I almost went through the windshield when I was bedding in the pads w/o a seat belt. OOOPS!), but I would also recommend swapping the master cylinder w/ a Type-S. Pedal feel is not as stiff as they should/could be. Needs more fluid IMO. Initial bleeding is a pain too. Need a vacuum pump for sure. Those pistons take a lot of effort to fill. Some people have concerns about sucking fluid will damage the ABS valves/rings, but I haven't had any issues.
Proportioning is still front biased w/ the 6 pistons. I didn't bother installing the 4 way EP3 valve, because I thought I would be a little more rear biased because drums tend to need more of the proportioning than all disks.
