wondering how easy would it be to swap those 2 LED's at the end that provide the white back lit with say... red LED's. any info? because i think i damaged one of the leds, it seems to be dimmer than the other and it shows on the screen.
hmmm... might be possible. The only problem with the LK204-25PC backlight is it's one big piece. So cutting the leds off and replacing them with red ones would prove to be a challenge to do really well. But I believe it can be done.
well from the looks of it, the 2 leds on the right side look to be simple leds that are glued into the the led backlight piece. I can visibly see where it could be seperated, who knows. don't think it's worth risking. Oh well!
It can be done... just have to be care full The LEDs would have to be cut off perfectly straight and then the plastic filed to perfect smoothness and then the new ones glued on perfectly straight...
very very tempting, i have my lcd in my firebird and it has a red glow to the guages. It would be cool to put a red glow to the lcd thuogh.. hmmm.... I might look into it.
i'd rather someone test a dead one, then tearing mine out of my dash, trying it, and to find i fail. that would be sucky. oh well, let me know if you find a test subject.
lol, i just went out to my car, battery is dead. And i just fried my 400watt power inverter, blah. I'll see about getting some pics later today, have to hook up webcam to the car, then network..etc.
heh sounds cool, hey Henry, thats what I was talking to you about a while back, changing the LEDs, I want the replace one with red, that would look awesome
