I believe its the same as the regular clusters. There is no special lighting on the Xtreme clusters opposed to the regulars.

I think...

LED Dash Lights - "How to"

cool thanks, but do you think it mite look bad with the xtreme cluster I'm wonting to do it in red.

Red seems to be the only color that works with the Xtreme needles. With blue LEDs the red Xtreme needles disappear.

have you tried it in blue then?

No, I have not installed my blue LEDs yet. There is a member on cfans that did blue and other colors. He found that the orange Z85 needles work best with blue LEDs. I would link it to the thread as there are pics but cfans is down for updates and I couldn't find it here.

Here ya go guys!

And for giggles here is a combo. The fuel guage has the red Xtreme needle on it, but you can't even see it.

 

[Justin]

BTW I have an extra Xtreme cluster up for grabs if anyone wants it. I can do whatever color you like.

 

[DBNissan]

There they are!!! LOL

Thanks Justin!

Its almost worht it to do blue with the orange needles... that looks sick.


Is there a way to light the "Xtreme"? I always wondered why GM never did that shit.

The Xtreme logo isn't transparent so it won't light up. If you notice...the RPM X 1000 doesn't light up with the blue either.

Here's one where I caught my flashers:

thank you that helps a lot, is the bottom really that bright

Yeah it's really bright. I'll have to post up some daytime shots. You can even see glow blue in the sunlight! It kinda flushes out the letters, but you can still read them fine.

But the RPM X 1000 reads when backlit with red?

 

[griff]

what about red, is it as bright

 

[Justin]

I can make the DIC pretty bright. This one is not an Xtreme, but you get the idea.

 

[GtotheJay]

has anyone ever done white LEDs?

Yeah....the factory.
