I've been looking into upgrading my dash lights for a while. I looked into it when I had my first Astra Turbo and I ended up buying LEds, and didn't like them at all. I've contacted a few people to ask this question and they arn't sure how to do this. So I thought I would ask here to see if anyone knows how this person got this effect on his speedo dash as I really like it http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/1138/6417lld20.jpg

Someone said it could be leds but there is no hot spotting, it's like it's perfect. and I want mine to look the same. I tried asking the guy but he bought the car like that.

Then I looked into PLASMA DIALS like this picture http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/8682/p1020345hu.jpg But that is a lot more expensive and alters the whole speedo dial then you need some custom white speedo dials (which I can't find) to make it look the same as this and will cost about $200 total.

So anyone know how it's done in that first picture with the same effect ? If I can't do it the same I will probably go with the plasma Dials in the 2nd photo.

Look at Dahlias ride thread, he has put them in his car, he isn't on very often anymore to ask questions but he may have linked the site he bought them from and how to install
