Absolutely fabulous work. I actually won a set of needles on here over a year ago. One of them went out on me about two months ago and they replaced it for free. OLT is the the schiznit. Imo. Their prices are fair and offer i think a lifetime warranty.

If your needles and/or lights go out, i think this is the best option.
Nobody(in their right mind) is getting it fixed at the dealer.
Plus, you can customize them.....

NOTHING is full proof. shti happens to everything man-made.

EDIT: and stop making so many threads....there are 5 on the 1st page alone.

I emailed lextech from his website and never got a reply to my questions (it's been roughly a month). I've heard good things though.

i didn't have the best experience with lextech (particularly pertaining to their lack of customer service) but i ended up getting my cluster back and all the lights look very nice.

unfortunately they are about the only option to getting the cluster lights replaced.
they do good work though.

This was on your red sc paco? Mine had a slight flicker problem on my last SC300 but I just sent them back and he fixed them and sent them back to me for free. Its all custom work, but everything has been working great for me for a year.

Only problem I have is temperture gauge is never correct, and he gives me instructions to fix it, (wait until the engine is warm and lift the needle off and place it back down in the corrected place) but I can only see of ONE WAY to attach the needle because it has 2 mounting points sticking up and the needle only fits in that way. If I try to adjust it the needle just falls off because its not on those mounting points anymore. The needle doesnt attach any other way to adjust it So my temp reads a bar higher when my engine is warm.

Only problem with the 97+ ccfl gauge cluster.. is the WHITE is not as bright, its a yellowish white. Also the Needles you are stuck with the ugly orange. I actually downgraded from a 97 sc300 to the 92-95 sc300 so I could get a brighter white and blue needles.

Example for you YeA 2jZ
My old 97 sc300 setup with lextech climate:


My latest 95 sc300.
My IS-F Style interior.


OP you should be expecting results like that ^
