Talking First Multi Colored V1 Display in Mirror

I recently had a gentleman come to me wanting a V1 remote display installed in his mirror after seeing mine in my personal car. I pitched the idea of having a multicolored v1 display put in. The strength indicator is now more of a threat indicator. The first 2 colors are, the next 2 are yellow, then the last 4 are red. Along with that, each band was assigned its own color, and then the 7-segment display was turned blue, as were the arrows. Here are the pictures. Enjoy! I've driven around with this thing installed for a while, and its amazing the difference the colors make.

That is just awesome, I'd love to have one of those. How much did you charge to do it (if you don't mind my asking)?

I've done all of my work through shipping in the past.

In that case...PM for price on LED Rear Turn Signals. That mod is bad ****!!!

Hey Alex, you'd totally dig his Blue Interior LED project since it totally would match those new guages you are thinking of getting.

GTNPU Z: I know...that's what I was talking about.

Acree: I wish I could...but that means I'll be taking my whole interior apart. I don't trust myself for that and then putting it all together...

Again, I wish you lived closer, or if you'll be taking a trip to this area... *hint hint*

I'm trying to build a SEMA worthy streetcar...if you could do the finishing touches, that would have been awesome.........

The led's should have been like that in the first place because its tough to distinguish the different radars at night
