I like the gauges man. I want them, but right now its a slow time in the HVAC buisness and the only work I have lately is detailing the neighborhood cars, so I'm a bit short on money.

You'll have to get you an HVAC panel and healight control panel too.
I'm seeing aftermarket 4wd panels and Rear gate/wiper panels pop upevery now an then too... that woud finish it off nicely!

That looks sharp, did you just switch out the lights for blue ones or LEDs? I've been thinking of putting in white LEDs in my instrument cluster for that clean crisp look. How many bulbs are behind the guages?

depends on if you have a tach and it depends on whether its a canadian model. No tach has like 2 bulbs less than the Tach. And the canadian has on more bulb than American.

Yeah, I only switched out the bulbs for LED's.

There was 6 of them...

As for changing out the rest of the lights, I think that's an entirely different job, as I think all the other panels have LED's in them, like the stereo, don't they?

Just curious what led's you need to do that mod with (voltage, size, etc) and secondly how exactly do they mount in the cluster (soldered to existing plug, clip off plug and solder wire to led, electrical tape?)

You just plug 'em into the socket.

Jetco brand 194 blue LED's

any 194 sized bulb will work for the cluster lights...

Don't have the packages anymore, so I don't know the part number, but like I said, any 194 sized light bulb/led will work...

Just hope that it's not polarity sensitive, lol, or that you get it right on the first shot...

edit: do NOT try to measure the voltage of the built in lights on things like the wiper switch panel... You blow the fuse...
