So after a while of doing nothing. . . 

Just to keep this sort of updated. . . 

Not much has changed, she is still running great, 

We have passed 180000 km

Took a nice 500km burn yesterday,. Noticed a few things. Boost used to be max 22.5psi, currently going up to 24 post burn, in estcourt (the town nottnot person) I managed 25 psi, no clue why. 

And now to the real reason for this revival. Please don't hang me for this gents, but I did some digging, and found something I quite liked, so I decided to switch it up a bit. 

With the birth of my daughter in June, I had been doing more night drives up and down between the hospital and home. Then coming home late at night from work, but anyway, something started bothering me a bit more.

The orange glow of the dash lights were a bit dull to me. I wasn't really a fan of that since I got the car but, it's one of those things that it's not a deal breaker, it just played on the back of my mind recently So for the past few days I have been busy in between babysitting and work upgrading the lights in the car. 

The ac controls, the cluster and a few more things. All the LEDs were changed to white. In my opinion it makes it look more modern and clean. 

I have a few pictures but dont judge 100% the sun was in a really stupid spot so the pictures aren't the best looking. 

But anyway. Anyone else done this? Anyone not a fan, and maybe a show of hands of who wants to kill me for doing this.

Cool I was thinking of doing just the clocks not the middle display.
Where did u get the led's


Howzit man. I started with the clicks but it didn't have enough of an effect so I did the displays as well. Not sure which car you are planning on doing as the LEDs may be different. Will send you a pm with the place I got mine from. Super cheap. They also burn very easily if you aren't careful with the soldering iron.
