    DADGUMMIT etl! I've been debating this little "mod" for some time, and now that I see it done I want to do it even more. Looks like I'm off to buy some LED bulbs.

    Looks good , but I'm with T4B; gotta find a way to change the tach and speedo color.

    its super easy to do the LED conversion the way i did it

    went on autolumination.com and superbrightleds.com

    the bulbs you will need

    (4) 194 bulbs for behind gauge cluster (blue does not work well, doesnt light up the speedo/tach well, green was OK, white was best for me)

    (4) 10mm base Neo wedge bulbs (i would suggest getting two colored glass bulbs and 2 led bulbs, the bulbs that light the airflow positions are inconsistent with LED lighting because of how they are designed

    (1) Red 8mm base neo-wedge bulb for hazard warning light

    (2) 8mm base neo-wedge bulbs for illumination of "on" indicators for mirror and rear defrosters

    (3) 8mm base neo-wedge bulbs for illuminating cruise control, heated mirror and rear defroster symbols

    the ones i ordered from superbrightleds.com worked well but were a VERY tight fit, so if you put em in backwards theyre a pain in the rear to get back out to flip

    i also got a single 74 bulb to light up the ash tray when pulled out, make sure you get something that a. fits through the hole and b. has side facing LEDs, otherwise it wont light anything
