How long did it take you to get your order from him? I'm going on my 4th week now with no tracking number.

Hmmm, that's strange. I got my dash kit on the second group buy with SRT forums within a week. Have you contacted them?

im thinking im going to wire 8 more superbright leds into there to make it brighter. its 12 volts going through there right?

yup, unless there's a resistor inline with the vamp one creating a voltage drop

Hmm came to my dad's house today (billing address) Oh well.

That's the only reason why I don't want to get one. I dont' like the idea of the damn thing staying on all the time.

its not fully on all the time, just a little glow out of a couple leds.. at least on the one i made.
doesnt interfere with anything

good god why do you need that much light in your dome????!!!!

i seem to recall that the slight glow was only a problem on some years... but i may be wrong on that..

Did your LED fit in without modification? I think I'm dunna have to run some leads form the sockets to both ends of the tube.
