🧭 Overview

Dashboard LEDs are miniature indicators embedded in the vehicle’s dashboard mesh. Each LED reflects a specific vehicle state — from engine health to lighting — and toggles automatically based on gameplay conditions. No dummy is required; the plugin reads the material color and adjusts brightness accordingly.

Each LED material has two states:

Off – the LED remains unlit, blending with the dashboard.

On – the LED glows brightly, signaling an active or alert state.

💡Tip: These LEDs are purely visual and ideal for immersive dashboards, HUD-style cockpits, or custom interiors. Use small quads or dots with emissive textures for extra glow.
