    Default Dash lights

    Right I want some bright white dash LEDs for my clocks and switches,

    Are they any good for a start and how well does the dash light up as standard nova clocks look shi7e in the dark..

    Any pics of them fitted?

    Was toying with the idea of fitting more modern clocks (cav/corsa maybe)

    I like plasma lights but don't like the colour when on, is there an alternative?

    What would you guys do?

    last time i was in an electronics shop you could get 12v bright white l.e.d meaning no in line resistors so would be ideal for the switches and you could make one up and test it to see if your happy with the results.
