im still working on blacking out the interior trims,, so watch out for that.. hehehehe..

That is nice...What did you use to do it?

ummm...not really sure

same window tint you use for smoking tails

The spray on stuff right?

yup.. bought from testor.com.. forgot the part no.. but its window tint

That is awesome...How much harder is it to see the gauges during daytime?

^ I was going to ask the same question

ok. heres the thing.. this i think is only applicable for 04 civics,, except dx models.. since the lights on our clusters are always on evrytime you drive.,,other than that u wont see anything on daytime.. thats the only problem,. unless ur good and put a mini neon inside hehehehe...

Sick! Kinda like the accord. You really don't see the gauges until they light up.

I like!!

what's with the paint on the steering??? looks out of place

not my thing, but other members would have to use their parking lights ALL the time to see their gauges I guess? people other that 04's which are always illuminated

I like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :tup: :tup: :tup:

I'd need to see daytime pics to judge...

it is weird, but weird in a good way. i like it.

Oh i get it now. lolz. When i looked at some of the new Lexus's, you can't see anything but when you turn on the car, it's lighted up day and night. I don't know the reason why they do it though.

I actually think it's unique although i wouldn't do it myself. good job though.

im blacking out my interior.. so im just starting. when im done it wont be out place.. il be done soon because the weather is starting to get nice here.

i like it good job

thnkz guys

the 04 dash xluster lights up all the time doesn't it?

yup.. execpt for the dx models tho

that's pretty dope. i wanna buy a blue lit cluster.

hmmm its nice

looks great. No one liked the idea at first but you did it anyways and have found a lot of support. +rep

i have an 03 an my gauge cluster always illuminated, imight give this a shot to go with my blacked out look???

yeap.. that sure will blend. and ul be suprised wen u see it in person.. very nce.. hehehe.

on my o3 i have 2 settings for the cluster lights. the knob for the mileage adjusts the brightness, then when the parking lights are on its a seperate adjustment

yea.. we have the same clusters i think

sweetness!! yeah the lights run like that on my 05 so i think after you get the day pics up(just to see the glare) im deff. doin it!! looking good!!

it all looks clean....everything but the painted steering wheel
