Project Red Baron - Gaz' Cav

[btcctroy]

looking nice pal

[Terry]

love the little touches on this cav

There was a guy who fitted led's to the Cav heater panels on MIG or VxON a few years back. They did look ace, Think they were bout £60 though.

[btcctroy]

leds are cool

[Terry]

They are, Just wish Gaz would get his finger out and do mine

[Gaz]

I already told you to bring them round if you want them doing, ive just got a spare heater panel out of my supplies of crap and gonna do that in abit

Link for pulling it apart, looking at it should be reasonably easy

[Terry]

Be hard to strip the full dash wouldn't it. I want some putting in the footwells remember.

[Gaz]

yea not got to that yet, wanna get a dimming interior light to nick the board out of before i do footwells.

[Terry]

If the car dims already then they'd be ok just wired to the circuit?

[Gaz]

yea should do leds dont pull much current.

[Gaz]

Well that took probably 3 times longer than i expected, thats all ive got done tonight lol

[btcctroy]

can any1 remember the ufo cav, leds everywhere

[Gaz]

Im going to stop, im updating the lighting rather than making it visible by air.

[humbucker]

can any1 remember the ufo cav, leds everywhere

Wasnt that Andrei?

[Envoy CDX]

Heater panel is a bit bright but I gather the front isn't on yet?

[Gaz]

Today i decided to get a couple of jobs done, fit the heated panel and swap the middle bit of the dash for a new one i had waiting

All bagged up waiting to go in.

While i was there i wired up the other 2 switches (the aircon ones next to the heated rear window) so i can use them for other things and not have to hack the dash about to fit extra switches.

[Gaz]

All back together and i think its confirmed my camera phone is dying

[btcctroy]

looks well nice. standard lighting on a cav is pathetic!

[gsi pie]

[Squig]

you'll just have to come up and show me and Em

[Gaz]

I tried the other day but you blew me out

Did you use the same LED's as the sun visors & dash, if so how many & where did you put them, pics ?

[Gaz]

Didnt take any pictures of doing it but it involved lots of dremeling to clear space to get them in, its not a 10min job.

[terkin]

looks good

[Gaz]

last night it got one of terrys detailing style washes with all the gear, rather than my version where i clean all the muck off it.

Should have took a picture of it clean but i didnt lol

had a look through my phone and found some old pictures

And this one in a pub i was in one sunday dinner.
