    Gauge Cluster Teardown and Rebuild - Beware, Pic Heavy!

    I used rubbing alcohol and cotton balls for the first clean then for those stubborn streaks of grime and dirt used a green scrubbie pad and some more rubbing alcohol cleaned mine up and looked like new again careful not to scrub to hard tho you will scratch it.

    The dimmer works but doesn't affect where the LED bulbs are installed because I personally did not buy the dim-able LEDs that they sell because of their ridiculously high price the incandescents used for all other bulb sockets however do dim with the dimmer switch
