I know its nothing crazy but im just excited i got another circuit board finally so i dont have to use my gps at night to know my speed at night anymore.. and then i had some extra 168/194 LED bulbs sitting in my tool box..and i figured..why quint at it..tons better almost like newer cars in terms of brightness...still need to pull the wheel and change the bulb in the trans indicator.

looks good! I have the white face gauges in mine now with led and what a diff. 8424]
Not only do the LED bulbs give much better dash cluster and interior lighting, but they also do not produce lots of heat like the old style bulbs do that burn and discolor plastic dash cluster, dome light and console light lenses.
Both of your dash cluster lighting looks fantastic gentlemen!

Where did you buy the bulbs and what kind? I'm gonna be putting the gauges in soon and might do this. What about the radio?
Ok answered my above question by visiting superbright.
Another question now is what color bulb? Green, cool white or warm?
I'd like it to look original just brighter.
Got mine in. All ordered from superbright. Cool white color will look like this. I like the shade of blue over the green. Goes with the car! They aren't gaudy at all. Only hiccup was I had to switch the polarity of the wires on the console gear indicator lamp. There is no way to switch the bulb orientation like a 194 because of the base design. The tach and radio with same base worked without having to do this.

That is nice, I really like it. Good job!
That looks awesome! Maybe a stupid question, but can these be dimmed by the factory switch if need be?
