BOM
I can create a Bill Of Materials for anyone interested. In short:
- little blue LED's for the face color - $0.79 ea.
- The backlight ones (type 74 for the idiot lights, turn signals, etc - $0.79 ea.)
- The four large white LED's for the needles and odometer lighting - $3 ea.
- Flat white testors model paint - $1.50
- Flat black testors model paint - $1.50
- Satisfaction of doing it yourself - priceless
I think that the white faced SVX gauges have gotten a bad rap in the past because, IMHO, thet look incomplete with the black needle centers and the black screw heads. Painting them white completes the look, in addition to making the other two 'red headed step children' gauges white as well.
