Oznium LED Replacement Guide

If you buy this twist-lock base and put in whatever 194 bulb, it should work perfect.

someone correct me if im wrong

Diameter of the whole unit.... should help you pick which one you need.

let me know if you need other measurements

Hubbz, some of the twist lock bases, in a few years (or models) don't have easily removeable bulbs. Mine had a hole in the bottom (shown) and just pushed right out. I have a set of holders that have no hole, which makes it alot easier. You usually end up crushing the bulb...

sorry for the book/table. lol. my desk is a little covered atm.

yea, i pushed mine right out and did the whole bending out the arms bit. im just saying for people who dont want to deal with that at all and just buy the bases and plop in the bulb

I tore out my center console and want to replace the cubby hole light and the gear shift backlighting. From jhubbz previous thread I need a 74 for the cubby hole, but the gear shift backlighting-is that a 194 or other?

Here's one for you cherry: can I splice into that gear shift backlighting bulb wire to add an LED for the cupholder LED workup you posted?

Yes and yes. 194 for gear-shift, and I have the same set-up as you are talking about except my cup-holder LED is spliced into the cubby-hole wiring. It will not make a difference though where you splice it.

I actually cut out the 74 bulb socket and wired in a surface mount LED from Oznium. Much brighter, and more even light in my opinion.

Off topic question: with your gear shift letter display-have any cracks or fissures that you could only see with the light on? If so, anyone ever make an attempt to repair them?

They have a lot of choices for the 194 and 74...Picking these up:

74-xHP for the cubby light.
WLED-x6 for the gear shift light.

I'm surprised they don't sell wiring cable...need some of that as I chopped off my cubby light socket and need to re-solder it on.
