I have been looking for tC custom dials but, I am having a very hard time finding some. If anyone knows a site that does the tC custom dials please let me know. I just want to change the color from yellow to something else.

Or do you mean the Gauges? Swapping gauges or just the LEDs behind 'em?

I was meaning I'm guessing the color of the dials. I'm guessing LED behind them.. I want to change them from yellow to some other color..
Yes you would have to change the led's behind them.

Are they LEDs in a TC? because they are lamps in the xA and xB.

well if you are talking about behind the guages and in the instrument cluster I think its all leds in the xa, xb, and I'm pretty sure the tc, they all should have bulbs in the hvac controls though

yes, gauges LEDs, mine are blue now, and lamps in the Hvac, (soon to be blue for me).
Ive also seen the LEDs go from blue to red on the tach in a tc, that was nice.

They're definitely LED's, but you have to get someone to switch them out - they have to desolder the amber led's and solder in the other ones.
I changed mine. One of the NJ Scikos does it (Karl).

Ask around - I know some other people do it. You'll probably have to send them your circuit board unless they're local.

Here is the breakdown for the gauge cluster
14 LEDs:
2 For Gas Gauge
2 For Temperature Gauge
5 For Speedometer
2 For LCD panel
3 For Tachometer
Steering Wheel Controls:
3 LEDs (Same LED's as the Gauge Cluster)

or if you are not good at putting new led's in www.blackcatcustoms.com makes custom guages for TC in almost any combination and it should be a replacement unit not just stick on covers
