Default Gauge cluster lights

This may be a stupid question.


superbrightleds.com changed their site layout around a little bit and I am some what confused on what I am getting.

I know I need "twist lock" bulbs for my gauge cluster like Thogert says, but I am unsure which ones they are.

(I AM GUESSING THEY ARE THESE?)

Also, here is the main page for cluster lights. Thanks guys

From what I understand, you need the twist lock base and T10 bulbs, and you buy the base seperate from the bulbs. Someone correct me if im wrong, as I have been debating on doing the LED swap as well.

Yep, you need the T10 (called 168/194 on the site) bulbs and the bases to match.

Here is the kind of bulbs that are most popular for the gauges.

Here is the matching bases.

Buying red LEDs for cluster ... how many do I need to buy? (including climate control cluster, 4x4 buttons, headlight switch panel, power window/lock switches, etc.)
