Also tested my coils, with the advice of members of DTT, and both work great just need new spark plug wires. Which doesn't bother me, since I wanted new ones anyways .

;D Now the light will reflect around the gauge face and it won't have a green tinge to it.

Hey I like the way you did the frame and the seat fender combo looks good!
I may use a front end off a CB/CL360 for the disk brake on my SL350. Are those 33mm legs?
I love the smell of fiberglass resin!

Which BA9 bulb did you get? They have several profiles of bulb, yours are really bright and I want the same. I order some off ebay and they suck, not much brighter than stock.

Dang the cart link didnt work, I was just wondering which profile you got? round, angle or cluster led. I really like the way the bulb floods the gauge.

This was the only thing that came to mind when i saw these .it might impare your vision at night.
Kind of bright so it might throw your eyes off when adjusting from that to your head light on the road at night.

The white housings are a great touch. I wish I would have thought of that when I did my gauge.
