there is no direct fit except for the dome lights. everything else is custom made by each person. if you read what oktain said then you'll see what you need

So far all I've done is the instrument cluster.

ok, so after looking around and what not for a better way to led swap my interior... i came across a thread on s10forums and from what i understand they used the T1.5 bulb type from Superbrightleds.com... now, i'm willing to spend the $11 bucks and send a couple to my house and find out but... any ideas about how big the bulbs are for our window controls and such? i have 2 burnt out and if i'm replacing them, i might as well swap


sorry for the book

Check the link in my sig. You will need sockets for the 6 dash lights. It's easiest to go to a junk yard and get them from fords or other cars to replace them.

Can LED's be dimmed like incandescent? I'm sure there's a band of operating voltage, but is it wide enough to use the variable brightness control?

Not that I use that thing except deep in the mountains at night, but full bright LED's might be a bit much out in the country sometimes.

Mine don't really dim very well. If you take the dimmer all the way down, they will turn off though.
