2005 Silverado LED cluster swap
-
What exactly did you do tape off the cluster in lay and paint it?
-
I first sanded the factory paint on the back of the inlay that was on the numbers, then I taped off what I didn't want painted. Then, I carelessly painted the back of the inlay cuz it was taped off! tons-o-fun.

Did you come up with this or find a how to somewhere?
-
Some one on here cleared his gauge needles, and put it up in a thread. Then I got interested, and googled it. Next, I asked people on here about it. Christian (duct_tape123) helped me a ton, as did Mike (tanz45) (THANK YOU TO BOTH OF YOU!). After enough research, I just dove in and improvised along the way. I'm doing all the instrument panel switches, and door lock switches red next. I can help you along the way, if you need me to.
