Lol, I'd have to admit I was getting a little ahead of myself...
So I have decided first leds then wai. Once those are done ill go from there. Also do you think those greens are worth it or are they too close to stock? And Ill have an extra one, where could I put it?

[Ttop191]

they will be very similar to whiterider's


save the extra in case one blows out

[robalero]

yea just save it till one blows out, I wanna do red for mine but I keep thinking it will look too much like a sunfire or any pontiac....I guess I will just do it and see if I like if not im out $10 lol

[whiterider00]

let me know if you ever get the leds. i payed for them, and got a confirmation number and email, then 2 weeks later, no leds, and no responses to emails. disputing it thru paypal now.

ok.
i hate having to make echecks they take so long...
first you purchase it send echeck takes 6-8 buisness days to transfer money from bank, then another day or so to send him the money, then he has to accept and ship which will be another 2 weeks..
and if he isnt legit then 3 weeks+ wasted time

if this guys legit im buying these too.
Anyone know where i can buy any of these leds offline if need be?

[whiterider00]

the one for the dome light is a 42 or 44 mm festoon bulb. that one would be way too small. look on ebay too for leds. probly b cheaper.

[robalero]

its a lot cheaper then buying that stuff locally I can say that for sure

[Bigshot44]

found a new place. only $4 free shipping ten bulbs

[robalero]

might have to follow up on that lol

Are people using blue or white leds for this? I put one white led in and it looked blue bc of the blue tinting. If I used blue leds, would it make it more vivid?

green. whatever color you use (besides white apparently) will be bright enough to overcome the colored film on the gauges. the red areas in the gas gauge and tach even show up green, just slightly darker than the rest.

[cherrington17]

yes. blue shows up REALLY blue. I think nate posted a how to on taking apart the cluster and removing the tint...

its possible, its just a film.

Ok, I did this mod today with some blue led's and it looks awesome. I did get curious tho with some of the other bulbs under there. I snapped a few pics (sorry a couple are blurry) and the ones circled in red are the turn signal bulbs (also not pictured are cruise and high beam indicators). They look like 74 bulbs, but from Sylvania's bulb replacement guide, they are PC118's? I didn't try replacing them, but if someone wanted to shed some light (no pun intended) on this, it would be appreciated.







The large one in the last pic is the inverted 194 for comparison.

i replaced the turn signal bulbs with blue LED's. dont remember the bulb type tho lol
