You didn't see a DIY for this because everyone uses LED's for hte cluster and there are like 5 DIY's for the cluster lighting in several different colors.

Heres a link to a DIY write-up just down the page:
https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=6

 

not bad i was thinking of doing this for my DA.take a pic with the cluster lights on in the night

 

damn i would do that but i would have to change out my climate control and what not.. nice write up!

 

i made mine light up red

and currently working on converting dashboard illumination to red as well. so far i approximated 20leds to achieve decent illumination without black spots. this is including changeover of those green lights when you press buttons

ill make a new thread on this with pics and everything, maybe even will come up with DIY for you guys

what about the gas light i dnt think its ever been on?!?!?!

 

nope everything that is blue lights up right?i went out right now but my bulbs dont light up, my climate control and everything else lights up and its not my dim switch here i have a pic , i just went out and now nuthing on my cluster ligths up except the stuff that lights up wen you put key in switch , oh and it doesnt show my miles no more so i know its not bulb cus when i put the normal bulbs back on nuthing i cant see how fast im going anymore i really need help people please bump . note: my climate control and parking lights light up so it isnt the 10 fuse or the dimmer switch

 

ok here are the pics during the day



dont worry i took off the white things so it is the stock cluster
for now i have a LED bulb but really needs to get working BUMP if viewed

damn so what exactly did you do and what happened? so like your blue lights worked. but you got SRS light... then your blue lights stop working? o_O

 

everything for my dush that works with dimmer doesnt work no more but trun signals light up ABS light up and HAND BRAKE ligths up and DOORS OPEN light up, so it must be the fuse right? wrong , because cliamte and rest light up and parking lights and headlights work so it is specifically the cluster or dash and i replaced old bulbs so i really dont know

 

It could be the bulbs. Try putting the OEM bulbs back in and see if they work. idk what else could be the problem if you did everything right.

 

thanks for the help but i already replaced with the oem bulbs , not the blue ones and nothing, i really need this for in the night it doesnt light up

 

bump!

 

bump help.....

 

i wna do mine red also....i love the way it looks on RSXs.....but i have a JDM ITR cluster and i dno if i should do it or not.....i wounder if it would look good or not?
