first off, bought a few items for my girl's birthday. wanting to spruce up her 2000 camry. i've recently ordered the following:
reverseglow gauges, windshieldsprayer leds, underdash neons 6", undercar glow kit. was hoping if anyone out there has had any experience with any of these applications to a car would be willing to help me with advice or instruction, it would be great to get an email.

all items ive gotten have instructions but first hand is hands down zero to none way better.

don't know about instructions but make sure the windshield sprayer leds are not blue. If you've got some cowboy cops in your area, it can be construed as impersonating a police officer/emergency vehicle or improper lighting. It's been done before. Blue lights are reserved for emergency vehicles only in all 50 states and DC.

not everyone hits the board every day. be patient. If someone knows the answer, they will post it.

as for me, I was just giving a heads up so that if they were blue you wouldn't install them now just to have to uninstall them later.

The glow gauges are fairly straightforward. If yours is anything like mine, it came with a wiring harness that has 3 connectors for the gauges. You can plug the gauges into any two connectors. It doesn't matter which one you choose. Any of the 3 will power the gauges.

Have a drill handy to carefully drill 2 holes large enough to slide the female connectors from your new gauges in your instrument housing. I also duct taped the wires from the gauges to the housing for a cleaner install. This will also lessen the chance of crimping any wires when you are putting the instrument cluster back.
Remove the 4 small Phillips head screws from your stock gauges. You'll be using these to attach the glow gauges over your stock gauges.
The most difficult part is sliding your new gauges over your tach and speedo needles. Just be VERY careful so you don't damage and bend the needles. Once you've accomplished this, loosely center the glow gauges over the stock ones (more on this later).
You should only have 2 wires for powering the glow gauges (the "hotwire" and the ground). I spliced the hotwire to my parking light wire. Don't cut or splice any wire until you know that particular wire will power the glow gauges.
Even though the glow gauges have notches, you will still need to fiddle with them so that your warning lights will fully shine through. My mistake was thinking that the notches would align the warning lights and ended up with just half of the warning light showing. Once aligned, tighten the 4 Phillips head screws.
Install your instrument pod back in its place. Seems fairly easy now but it took me 1 1/2 hours to install mine.
One more thing...at least yours came with instructions, mine didn't.

Good Luck!!!
