Gauge Lighting
Just a Quick question, how hard is it to change the lighting behind your gauge cluster. I'm tired of the orange and want to go with a blue but I have never really done any lighting, when it comes to cars. Any help on time frame for work or maybe what kind of bulbs are behind the panel would help thanks.

Re: Gauge Lighting
Mine do, but they came with the car when I bought it, the needle is still that amber/orangy color tho. Probly need to buy a custom gauge face and then get the color LED's you want.

Re: Gauge Lighting
somebody here...and I don't remember who it was, used leds to change the color of his guages. You can use them to change the needles and the guage face.

Re: Gauge Lighting
I did a little search into this... pre-2000 guys are in for an easy swap, anyone post 2000 I don't advise you doing this since you have to remove your needles to access the lighting.
95-99 guys... #74's X 2 for HVAC #194 X 4 for cluster.. www.superbrightleds.com Have fun!

Hmmm...I may buy me another cluster to test it on first. If I can get it to work, then I'll use that cluster.

Re: Gauge Lighting
the LEds are on page 2 when you get to the right section of the website. You have to read the fine print. BUt those are the bulb #'s that you need. I'm going to get some for my Autometer gauges as well.
