Are installation instructions available anywhere? Just want to see how difficult/time consuming this would be to do on my own.

There's tons of DIYs out there. It takes about 20-30 mins to do the install

U can change the LEDs if u learn to solder. I self taught myself in a day. Start with spare wire, then move to a cheap circuit board (I bought a spare clock for our car off eBay for under $20)

The Toyota "T" pattern imprinted on the dash acts as a camoflauge hiding the icons.

Here is an unedited driving view in daylight from a customer. It shows an unlit dash and you can't make out the icons which aren't lit.

Right now I am focused on the metric version but,

I can definitely make a custom imperial version if I can get a guarantee of minimum 5 orders. Perhaps you guys interested can PM me and we can get a group going.

For BRZ guys, this is probably what it will look like with the amber & red LEDs.


I have an order from a BRZ owner so we will see how it plays out.

He only made them in small batches. I believe you will have to wait for the next batch. Is that correct @JW89225?
