OK will do... I'm also going to take a pic of the gauges tonight and post it so anyone interested can have a look at the phantom II @ night with the 2 different intensity levels that I currently have... I'm going to the lower level intensity myself... looks to bright otherwise.

well there you go... pics of the gauges wouldnt work... stupid camera (cheepie) So one of two things is going to happen, either I leave the lighting as is until next week when I have the good camera and can get the pic the way I want it or I skip it... We'll see as the day goes on... 1st the oil bypass install.

I see you decided to buy a real camera. Hopefully I will be ordering the Canon 30D soon, the d200 is a great camera, it is just i already have the lens and such for the canons.

well, I have a nikon 8008s and think the lens would have worked on it but decided to go with the 18-200mm VR lens. supposedly you can getlower shutter speedsout of it w/o needing a flash. that would put it at a shutter speed at 1/8 & no flash... we'll see how it works.

I just off loaded the pics I took last night of the dash and as crappy as they are, i'll still post them anyway...

Somebody done jacked your radio. HA HA. Why did you install a LED, is it to light up the cup holder like on the 06's. Why doesnt your middle gage light up? I wish that the 06 light would be brighter, and be able to turn it off.

you cant see the cup holders at night. I think it's an option to have the light there, I never looked into it...

Well this install sucks... there is no easy place for it that makes me happy... have a look @ the pics & options...


these 2 pics are another option, however where it's located is right on a bend in the frame...

the port I need to tap is the bolt right above the stock filter i'm assuming...

the filter is so long that it sticks down below the frame... too much for my liking...

anyways, i'm open to suggestions...

So you installed your light aftermarket right? Is it on a switch?
