A new dashboard by tuning old

Almost every car enthusiast who is the proud owner of domestic cars, certainly not once thought about how would look like the instrument panel with the tuning. There could be a lot of different options, the choice of which depends on a number of factors, most important of which are the taste and preferences of the owner.

Tuning the instrument panel is a complex process that begins with removal of  plastic which covers the necessary elements. The removed panel can be placed on the table (this will make the work more comfortable). For the procedure of tuning you will need the following:

- soldering iron (the soldering skill and some knowledge about electrics too will be not superfluous);

insert into the dashboard (on the choice of the owner); it is important to understand that the panel needs to be x-rayed (that is, numbers and symbols on the panel must be visible);

- UV light, which clearly coincides with the necessary parameters (such lamps are sold in computer stores);

wires (they may be the most common, the power is not exactly required);

- light bulb holders (they must be what is already equipped with dashboard);

- any glue and fluorescent marker

Well, you can go directly to tuning. Remove the glass and plastic around them and then arrows and a regular insert. If the holes in the new insert is missing, they should be done (size of holes should be slightly larger than the regular model, which will help to avoid "sticking" of the arrows).

Now you need to gently remove the standard backlight, pull the Board with lamps (on her site then will be connected to neon lights). The neon lamp should be carefully glued to the top of the panel instead of standard, and the top to secure the plastic protection. Next, you need to check the design for strength.

Next is to fix the control unit neon lighting with glue or double-sided tape. It should be connected to the place where previously was a full-time backlight, carefully observing polarity. If the Board is not marked with poles, they will have to be determined empirically. Now the dashboard can be connected to the car to check if everything works. If the polarity is set right, you can see the highlighted arrows.

Illumination of the instrument panel is done with the help of bulbs, which will require two on the device (for the speedometer you need a pair that can be connected by wires, in the walls are small holes, and connect the bulb to the same place and "neonka"). Here polarity does not matter. But to check the design for serviceability it should. If everything works, then you can attach the pad. So you will be sure that the result meets expectations.

Next, you can put everything in place. Hands should be several layers of paint over fluorescent marker. Now it is appropriate to collect the dashboard! It is important that everything was in its place. After the final setup is left to admire his creation. This dashboard will be the subject of legitimate pride!
