Solder / Circuit boards

[AbnMP13]

Who has any skills at soldering small LED's? I have a CBR 954RR and bought some green LED's to replace the orange ones in my dash and instead of trashing my gauges I wanna find someone who knows what they're doing. Here's the catch, there's no was to test them unless you know someone who has a 954.

It's not hard to do at all. Do a search on the internet. Anyone with two hands (maybe even one) and a pair of eyes (maybe even one there too) can do it.

Gotta disagree with the anybody can do it. Circuit card soldering is a pain. You need to know what you are doing or you will end up with junk. Its like using a mini torch on you stereo wiring. Pay a good shop tp do it. Some tips if you do it yourself Circuit cards should not be soldered on for longer that 5 seconds at a time with a 20 minute cool cycle,never blow solder cold it creates pits and a cold solder joint, always scrub clean after it cools with 99 percent alcohol, use a good iron with a needle tip set it around 725 degrees, if installing wires always Tin the wires first, google it and you can get some help on there.

I've always found it easy to do if you take your time and do your research first.

I'm gonna send them to bluegauges.combluegauges.com (http://www.bluegauges.com/) and let the professionals deal with them. New gauges are $620 and I can have them replaced for $55 at that website.

Sounds like a good deal. Post some pics up when you get them back.
