well its risky maybe not worth the try...but if you still wanna try it....first try it with the oclock...and then do the rest...at least thats not too expensive :P :grin:
rondy why you wanna change the oem stereo led? i mean it's possible but isnt better buying new stereo with the color you want? :whistling:

I just installed my OEM double din stereo on Tuesday lol :beer:

ok, i have talk with one of the guys that came to my house for this DFW Meet and he put those 60 intensity SMD on his optima, w/o knowing there was a intensity to follow, i look his cluster and looks fine to me. nothing has happened to his car or the leds

Hmmmmm...

??????

Just not sure if I wanna chance it ya know.

Last thing I wanna do is fry the cluster...
but then again...i could just keep the old leds...
just in case...warranty... lol

The second you take the cluster apart and start messing around with it you've voided your warranty on it... I don't see Hyundai willing to give you a freebie if something gets messed up... :whistling:

Nope... it's not like they wouldn't be able to tell you've been soldering on it.

you may void the warranty..but what the heck it's worth it....the green led its LAME!!!!!!!!!!

there is a cluser brightness knob that you use to adjust how bright your cluster is at night. I usually turn mine down all the way since I live in the country and the variance between the nighttime roads and the cluster gives me a headache. So using a higher intensity LED I think wouldn't cause too many problems since you can adjust the voltage being delivered to them.

Ditto!

But yeah...its not like they would really know if youve been tinkerin with the cluster.
Not CSI'ing them. lol

Ive seen bad clusters just come in and they swap it out pretty fast.

omg you could afford a retro fit but not not a new deck... for shame

Um, yes, there would be evidence that you've been in the dash and cluster, even if all they do is replace the cluster. And when the replaced part goes back to Hyundai for evaluation, THEY will most definately see that the cluster has been tampered with and charge the dealer back for the repair.

I'm not saying don't do it, I'm just saying that it will void the warranty. Once the "new" wears off of my car, I may end up doing it as well.

thanks i knew this will be a good pinned thread since there is members asking for this mod and im pretty sure there will be more members that want to do this mod as well. :57:

i think i'm going to install the purple one's on my car, because i bought a radio with a purple display and i'm enjoying it

OK guys this was teh wrong post to get sticky. Rewrite the post with a good set of DIY instructions adn pictures than report it for stick. There is way too much crap talk in here to make it worth while.

you should lock the sticky posts so that we cant just chatter in them....have some one email you with any additional information so the thread remains useful ....

well i believe this is a very useful thread since you can find pictures, link to other related thread, link where to buy supplies, link to a video how it looks like and also that "too much crap", as you call it, its just members thoughts about it.

It is a good thread. It's just not a good sticky. Too much trouble to separate the wheat from the chaff.
