I've replaced all the bulbs in the switchgear with LED's.

Very white and much cheaper than the Qube variants but the spread of light is not as good with the LED's than normal bulbs.

Its all very good with the exception of the heat dial. That looks a little uneven brightness wise.

That looks fantastic I'd much rather give that a go with a spare set of dials! tidy way of saving a fair bit

GaryB - Is the greenish tinge an artifact of the photo or does it look a little like that in the flesh? I've been considering doing something similar myself, but always thought finding LEDs with a wide enough dispersion angle and a white diffuser would be difficult. What did you use? It looks pretty close to a Qube dash without the expense.

The dash is Qube, the switches I did myself. Looks a bit green in the pic but not in real life. Well, its green now to 6k rpm with the new filter thingy on.
