Apologies if this has been asked before, but I want to change out the cluster bulbs for superwhite LEDs... Not the odometer, I know that's a standard 168/194, and those are available anywhere. I mean the tiny neowedge-based bulbs that light the gauges and needles. I'd like to convert those to superwhite so as to give the same 'white gauge' look as the 03 Accord.
Has anyone found out if the twist-lock base LED at http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/commerce.cgi?product=CAR is the same bulb, or no? All I've found is a messy 'kit' on eBay that requires you to tear up the bulbs you have in and solder in a resistor and focused LED, which will, of course, give a 'hot spot' and shaodws.
If not, has anyone found a LED bulb supplier that makes one that will fit, homebrew soldering not required?
