I was thinking about changing all of my bulbs in my interior to LEDs, but then I realized how much money it would be, well at least the websites I went to.

i got a 20 pack of red LEDs on ebay for like 10$ and they're prefit with resitors for automotive use.

Ive already installed them in the AC vents and replaced the underdash and center console lights with LEDs...just ive never messed with gauges so im kinda scared without some guidence.

well im trying to keep it strictly red/black..

with all the red interior lights already, anything not red really looks out of place...i even had to take the thermometer out of the center console because of that...

cool lookin dash though.

Thanks. I don't think getting to the lights is that hard. Check out this post for some help. Or you could contact either DrPerry or LennyBlazer, I believe they have done this mod. https://blazerforum.com/m_88018/tm.htm
