This is why BMW's only energize their alternators under deceleration or coasting.

Edit: Forgot to ask you my question. Does the factory dimmer still work with the cluster LEDs? I'm under the impression that it wont.

I'm interested in a red dash lighting Kit, I own an 81 280zx N/A with analog gauges and I'd like it to match my stereo when it goes into night mode (right now I have it set to turn orange, but I like the red SO much more...

For those who might be wondering, I finally got around to installing my dash bulbs. Yes, they do dim with your dimmer ****, but I found that the level they're at (the bulbs I have, which I bought before this was available) are right where I usually keep my lights at anyways. I can't tell that they're on during the day, but they're perfect at night. Not sure about the inbetween time, yet.

Hi, I am new to the forum and came accross your thread on LED conversation kits you were putting together. I am also interested in purchasing a kit from you if you are still putting together the LED kits?

Regards

Dave

I believe FricFrac (Kurk) has been working abroad for about 6 months now... he has limited access to the internet. Hold tight all'ya'alls.

I purchased the LED version of the tail lights from super bright led, red, white , and yellow. no problem installing. unfortunately it makes the warning light signal on the dash inoperative because these lamps don't draw enough current to indicate that they are working correctly.
