Custom LED work/Gauges



UPDATE: I AM NOT DOING THIS WORK ANY MORE. FOR THE RIGHT PRICE I WILL CONSIDER SMALL JOBS. I AM STILL SELLING PLUG AND PLAY ITEMS


I have the capabilites to make custom gauges, as well as lighting conversions for your vehicle. They will be made to your specifications as much as possible depending on application.

I work on more than just Maximas, but of course, they are my specialty. I'm working on a list of available colour schemes for all years, in the meantime, please email me for information.

.ORG members receive a 10% Discount!

What you get:
  • (Stock) OEM RELIABILITY, no cheap aftermarket crap, keep ALL your stock options, with the benefit of custom lighting.
  • Professional, tried and true installation, high quality components that will outlast your vehicle.
  • Well Honoured Warranty (You don't even get this with aftermarket gauges)
  • Will install Custom Incandecent lights if requested as well. Please note, some upgraded Incandcents need to be run on resistors (dimmer) because they produce excess heat.
  • No HotSpot Jobs available!
  • High Quality Gauges/Components, Most aftermarket gauges are cheap, maid in China/Taiwan junk, they're inaccurate, offer poor lighting, colours change after a few weeks/months, and they are famous for failing. They're also famous for not being even CLOSE to as crisp and bright .

Pricing is based on time spent, work necessary and cost of parts, contact me with your vehicle information, and what you're looking to do for a rough estimate

For information or a quote:
Contact Matthew through email at MickeysCustom@Hotmail.com

I also sell and install Tyutyunnik`s LED boards and bulbs, as well as many other LED LIGHTING components. Including bulbs for gauges, etc that are 'drop-ins'

An update 'teaser' picture for you guys, I'm working on the "red zone" of the Tachometer right now, expect a much more uniform lighting, as well, there is a hotspot around 180km/h in this pic, that will be gone.

Being the perfectionist I am, the pictures pulled 2 very minor dim spots out of the old set-up (barely noticable in person). So I've fixed them as well in this pic:







One of the great things I've noticed about the gauges, is the needle work actually illuminates the bevelled ring around the gauges. For those of us without stock Chrome rings, this makes it 'glow/shine' as if there was a little ring around it, it's a pretty cool effect.

I can't wait to do an install on one that HAS chrome rings, that's going to look phenominal.

Pick up a wrecker's gauge set and ship yours to me You can swap the wrecker's gauge in during the process. I have a current turn around time of under 72 hours, less if I receive a date of arrival (I can usually complete them in a day in this case).

So the time factor is mainly determined by what shipping you want.

It's all good either way, I don't need the work I have lots of 'local' guys interested (within 3 hours drive) as well as a bunch close by.

I'm looking forward to getting some more pictures up from the other jobs once completed as well.

Pricing depends on gauge type (year, model) and what colour scheme you are looking to go with. As well as brightness required, etc.

If you're looking to get the same set up I have pictured, for a 2000/2001 SE, it will around $130-160 with my current pricing, NO TAXES, warranty included, no additional fees. Customer covers shipping.

And don't forget, .ORG members get an ADDITIONAL 10% off the total.

Contact me through email for specific pricing for your application:

Actually, I'm out of the buisness for now. It's taking up too much of my time, something I lack a lot of now that I'm back to work full time.

Sorry to anyone who was waiting around to get stuff done (I know there were a few of you).

I may come back to it later on, or do things once in a while, but for now, no more orders. I'll delete this thread in a bit, just wanted to let everyone know.
