It looks like they are doing pretty much what you are describing, except they aren't using discrete mount LEDs. I just used the plug in bulbs, and they are plenty bright for me. I think having your dash lights too bright ruins your night vision, so mine are just bright enough to see everything clearly. I would only screw around with soldering and stuff if I had a spare instrument cluster to play with. They do look sweet though, and red would be cool. I was debating to go red or blue, but blue matched my Clarion head unit. If you are brave enough to risk screwing up your cluster, then go for it. This probably sounds strange coming from the guy who drilled holes in his fenders and used a Sawzall on his hood.
