Best feature dimmable amber LED lighting controlled by the rheostat on the factory headlight switch. 

Do you know of those LEDs were plug 'n play to work with the rheostat, and if so, the source of the lamps.  Or did they require any additional wiring, etc?  They're much brighter than the OEM incandescents and look better too.

I purchased mine at SuperBrightLEDs. They are plug n play also dimmable.  Over a year with no problems.

Everything is LED but the alternator light.

sehr gut.  (the dashboard, not mein deutsch)

Kooglewerks and VDO gauges on the center console.  Haven't decided if I want to keep the wood surround, but if I ever find a Petri wheel, I'll probably go black.

That's not that hard, oil temp, oil pressure, tach, fuel pressure and water temp.

 

If you want a challenge try reading a repair manual in German.

Anyone know if its possible to swap the MPH and Tach (a la 911) in the gauge cluster if having it rebuilt?

Not easily if you want to keep all the same lights, etc. If you go custom it can be done easier.

SuperBrightLEDS is a good store. I just upgraded my tail lights to led and I matched the taillight lens color withe the LED color per bulb. We're talking flame throwers now..

What is hiding under the passenger side tunnel? did you create that for the exhaust to tuck up?
