Well I guess I'll start with what I got planned for my truck this month. Going to replace the brakes and abs sensor. My stupid light just came on and it's annoying. Is any body running the blue gages in their trucks?

Oh, you mean like changing the factory green to blue? I dont know of anyone who sells kits for it. Most people do it themselves with blue LEDs. For the main gauge cluster you need to remove the green tint from the back with alcohol.

Thanks for the reps, but apparently the Rep Police dont trust you because its a grey rep on my page. I've never seen one before. My only guess is that its because youre new and havent got to [INSERT MAGIC NUMBER] posts yet.

Oh well, thought that counts
