FS : Spree LED dash kits for all gen 6 Celicas, Covers the whole dash inc. clock not just the speedo! Options

[Spree]

Hi,

I am an ST205 owner from the UK (I was actually born in Oklahoma but that is another story..!)

I am known as Spree on the forums in the UK (GT4OC and Celica Club UK) and having been developing a little dash kit for the gen six Celica.

I now supply Celica owners worldwide with my kit and have had fantastic feedback.

Check it out here : www.SpreeLED.com



If you would like one then I can do it for $39.99 delivered for 6GC members which is a bit of a saving over the conversion price from the £24.99 that it costs in the UK.

PM me on here or you can contact me through the web site.

Many thanks to presure2 for approving this post! ;-)

Spree. :-)

For the HVAC unit, when you disconnect the black and blue cables under the hood and by the pedal and disconnect the harnesses in the back, does the whole unit come out along with the cables? And also I noticed in the instructions u said you could pull the unit out a bit to get to the little screws holding the climate control plate in. If those screws are removed could the face plate just come off and you can work on fitting the bulbs?

Hi,

Yes thats right.

I fitted one of these on a car with cables a couple of days ago and I found that if you release the cables, you can then pull the unit forward enough to access all the screws without having to remove the unit and the cable completely. This makes refitting much easier as I can imagine that getting those cables back in once they are fully removed would be a PITA.

You pull off the large knob after you have removed the small screws on the top and bottom and the unit should come away from the part attached to the cables, there are some plastic clips on the side that you may have to release in order to do this.

You can then take apart the rest of the unit to fit the led's. I found that you actually dont have to thread the led's through the top of the circuit board as I have mentioned in the update to the instructions if you dont want to as they will go in through the bottom if you angle them in sideways an then straighten them again once they have gone through. This will save you having to take that bit apart.

This is the most fiddley part of the installation on a US car so just take your time and double check that the led wires are not crossed or touching in any way after you have fitted them before you check for polarity.

I took an extra pic of the climate control coming apart that I will upload tomorrow if you want?

Yeah that would be cool man. I looked at it like how the heck would i get the wiring back through the firewall without breaking my back and de-attaching my arm >_< I'll give it a try tonight, i just need to remove the knobs and i think the unit will come apart. The tiny screws are already out
