DAMN! Thats awesome. I dont think I'd do the blue needles unless the radio and AC backlights matched but wow! It possible to change the LEDs on the needles. That does look pretty nice tho.
WOW!

Pole Position
he does have an email. I spoke to him about 2 months ago and was talking to manaray about it. That pic is just of his car. But, he recently got backing and will be making them on demand very shortly. Asking price is going to be $550 as of right now (this could change from now to the time he starts rolling them out). If you guys got any questions you can PM me.

$550 way too much. I mean he just said parts would be $50....so for $500 labor it better be a 10 hour job...which I know it aint.
I think once we found out what the problem is and how to fix it....which apparently this guy knows.....I think it would probl. take an hour....because its not hard to take all that out.
Besides......new speedo is like what....300 reconditioned? Another $100 max for each of the other 2 needles, gas and temp.....and thats less right there.

How to physically fix burnt needles
if you guys wanna fix your burnt out needles I can give you a color schematic of the back of the dash and i'll show you what two capacitors to replace..1 capacitor controls the two right needles and the another capacitor controls the other side of the dash..if your good with soldering it should be no problem.
if you want it PM me

the dash cluster is easy to disassemble and easy to work on. I'm going to take mine apart to see if I can use high intensity blue LEDs to contrast the reddish orange needles.

I got this email from Lexusdash.com
Well this is actually a conversion process that is very complex
We do not ship the parts to end users to convert themselves since there are high voltages and calibration issues..
Our pricing includes the conversion and calibration.
Right now were pricing the dash conversion at $450 This includes all 4 needles
Were not taking orders yet. Very soon. I’ll be sending you an email when were ready.
Thank you for your Interest!
