Dude, Diamond Plate floormats and some cold cathodes under the seat would look soo good with the rest of your stuff. Trust me.

Hit me up on IM, maybe I'll share the pics...

yours, and socks are the only two interiors ive seen ive really liked. others are just to much rice. i.e paint....


the new gauges dont really fit the color of the led's and kinda look off. thats the only flaw. but it still looks damn good!!

What's the difference between cold cathode and the LEDs I have in there already? I did the LEDs because they were perfectly free, and I want to avoid neons as much as possible...
I've wanted to do the diamond plate mats, but they're a little hight for now. Some day I might... I really love the way they look in yours! And I don't want to give up the Tiburon logo embroidered in the carpet wink1.gif

Yeah, the color of the gauge face is slightly off, but I do have the brightness all the way up for the pic. It looks a little more reasonable in person. And you can't notice it in the pic, but the clock color is also a little off as the lens I used didn't quite match the LEDs. Plus the LEDs DTN used were a little more purple than the ones I had under my seat, but it's hard to catch.


I just noticed I missed this in the first post... I also have LEDs in the rear speakers! Can't see them in any of the pics, but they look terrific too!

i think diamond plate mats are the worst thing one can do to an interior, next to a big goofy tach. but im in the extreme minority, so dont listen to me. wink1.gif

monoxide, are you against a glossy black paint? i really dont like a colored dash, but i think the glossy black looks really good.

You know, I wasn't a fan of the Diamond Plate look either, till I got them.

They are SOOO MUCH LIGHTER than the OEM floormats.

They also clean VERY easily, and really, you can never wear them out.

^^ Yep, that's why it took me so long. I did them for my headlights too, but that was absurdly hard, and it didn't come out exactly as I wanted. They still looked right and everything, but I wasn't terribly pleased when I did it.
I do make and sell the vent haloz if you're interested, and I also do the window switch LEDs. Hit me a PM and I'll give you the details!

Cold cathodes are basically neons, but they work without the use of a cathode heater. They use higher voltage and less amperage which uses less power alltogether.

The LEDs I used were actually blue, not purple. I know what you're talking about though.. I have a set of blue LEDs that when compaired to another set of actual blue LEDs look greener then the blue ones and the blue looks somewhat purple.
