Ok, this afternoon i swapped my green lights to some amber LED guage lights, and now for some reason, parts of the tach, speedo, and such are MUCH brighter than other parts- particularily the 4 and 8 on the tach, 40 on the speedo, and the fuel guage seems to be really dim. how do i fix this- ive swapped lights at least 4 times now and have never ran into this problem before- help please! (ps the amber led's look great if it werent for this).....

The problem is probably that you're using LEDs. Try using regular bulbs, and the light should reflect much better.
