Oh I forgot that you have a 5-speed. You do have a 5-speed right? I may have just made that up.

I know on some vehicles they use a coating on the back of the clusters to make the color when the light shines through. I.E. on my old camaro the lights were green but it was clear bulbs, there was a translucent green paint on the gauges/hvac to make the green color.

how many of each bulb do i need to do the cluster and stuff (i haven't had mine apart yet) i was thinking of doing the cluster, hvac controls, and ashtray to start. along with map and dome lights.

Oh, okay. I get what you are saying. With the blaze, there is a slight blue tint to the color.

And I used 5 led's in my gauge cluster. I used 2 green on 1 side, 2 green on the other side, and 1 white in the middle.

And Thogert, I have a 4-speed automatic with overdrive lol.

Sometimes I wish my 4x4 was electronic. But I'm fine with manual shift.

cool. is that how you got that green/blue/green fade on there tibby? that's badazz. I'm not sure what color to go with. I kinda want to do UV/blacklight/purple but i think that would be a strain on the eyes in the gauges. Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe UV in the ashtray/map lights/dome lights and another color or blend of colors in the gauges and hvac...any suggestions as to what would go with the purplish/blacklight nicely?

I believe they switched to 6 lights in the gauge cluster in 98+.

Check this youtube vid out for help for your 98+

Yeah, that's why it has a blue to it. And if you go with blacklight, don't do anything... you know... in your truck. lol.
