INT: Simple Cluster Mod

[FDAccord]

any auto store [like autozone] around you. some bulbs however you'll have to paint with paint you can buy at hobby shops [i think its a translucent paint or something]

[Alex EX]

hi i i am trying to figure out where to plug the inverter to get power from and i can't figure out... does anyone know where i could plug it in??

[bodiez]

Yeah next time i get a spare day or so ill do that mod. How long did it take you to remove the cluster to replace the bulbs with blue ones?

[OnE eYe GuY]

something that wuold be really cool is if someone could post up all the locations of screws to remove the dash to get to the cluster. i have a habit of unscrewing everything and losing screws.

ChIoVnIdCa and cpmike,
First off, I know Im Brand new to this forum (first post) and YES, I did a search, But, I want to know how you guys got your gauges to light up blue. I know cpmike said something about LEDs in on of the posts I found in my search, but, is the any way some one can give specific instructions (ie: parts/ part numbers, locations ect) on how to make "reverse BLUE lights" I apologise ahead of time if I pissed anybody off, please dont "flame me" or be negative, Ive been in the HONDA scene for a while now, but this is my first 4th gen Accord, I will eventuallt post a "newbie introduction" (do you guys have those on this forum???) and explain which models I ve owned and a basic bio, but for now, I dont like my GREEN reverse gauges, so, it takes precidence.

Thanks guys, hope to hear from you soon,
Tim

Damn, I gotta remove the ENTIRE console and crap besides the dash, right? Flucking gauges, green is so ugly. I thought I saw a cluster removal guide somewhere in here but now I cant find it! Maybe someone can hook me up.

Yeah, that would be really useful. I am very interested in this mod.

Hey guys, after some more thorough (sp?) reading, I think I have it figured out, but I still would like to know what the part numbers are for the leds. oh yea, I have to take it all apart again really soon anyway, either i forgot to plug something in, or I messed up my climate controlls, eveything lights up, except for the knobs for the blower motor and temp.... whoops, oh well, now I have a valid excuse to go back in there and make it blue, then again, yellow would be cool too, or mabey not, i dunno, we'll see, probably gonna go blue tho. anybody know of a way to change the clock color???

[foodmonster36]

take the clock out and with a blue sharpie color the GLASSS!!!!! yes just the GLASSS blue

[i97supratti]

gotta love it.

wow, how did u get all ur lights like thaT? Hmm, i can buy ANY type of blue led and replace them in the cluster to get it like that? And i can remove my console and there will be bulbs for the switches like Rear Defog, Hazard, and Fog light switch?

[foodmonster36]

i think someone wanted to know about the gauge cluster, & removing the dashbaord, im not too sure how to explain removin the dash beside the 12 screws u have to take out, but i'll start with the gauge

this is the bulb location on the back of the gauge i'll try to draw it
(-) where the bulb goes at
cruise control indicator is 1 no blub is 2 brake warning is 3 oil pressure warning 4 charge warning is 5 check engine 6 Right turn singal is 7 high beam indicator is 8, 9 is the seat belt warning, 10 is the left turn signal indicator, 11 is a small gauge light, 12 is the big gauge light, 13 is the S indicator, 14 is low fuel thats all. hope this makes some sense
