L.E.D Dash, AC Controls & Blinkers installed..Pix inside

[tuff4rd]

Here are a few pix of the LED's I installed to match my new HU..They match perfect and are very bright. I also installed Green LED's in the blinkers Im very happy with the turn out, it looks way better in person than in these photos. I also installed them in the lighter (last pic), but may remove them due to the light bleeding on to the floor.

I think I may have the 4's also cuz mine is bright like his. Just can't remember.

Looks very good, always nice to see the instrument cluster at night.

That is very cool. What LED's are you using? Do these just replace the bulbs? LED's are typically directional, so how's it spreading the light so well?

[Whoaaanelly]

Never mind... now I see a new post with links. Will have to investigate...

the dashare wedge bulbs i have a pair i'll try. and the bulbs for his heater/a/c control and lighter apper to be multidirectiniol 4 bulb leds.


something to look into i guess. wonder if they make a red bulb that will fit the brake warning lamp?

figured m problem out it was atleast two problems at once,

1. one bulb socket was garbage in my cluster luckily i have saved the sockets out of other clusters.

2.and also they turned out to be white bulbs that looked blueish so there wasn't enough contrast now that i fixed that and went from normal styled 194's to wedge 194's it seems to be more visable.

now to see why my oil guage is reading high pressure with the engine off.

i;m guessing thats a bad sending unit. as the peg it by grounding the wire to the block pegs the dern thing.

The vendor I got these from on EBay is very good, ships quick. I ordered LED's from him over a year ago for my 04 FX4, and they are holding up well. They are very high quality bulbs.

holy crap! $8.30 for 2 #194 bulbs shipped??? You guys are paying WAY TOO much for those LEDs.

Go here, and save yourself a lot of money!

I bought all the bulbs in my bike dash, plus the city light in front, (10 bulbs in all) for around 30 bucks shipped!

cool i like the ba9's and 7's wich ones light the brake warning and the heter comtrol/lighter? ar the ba9's or ba7's?

[tuff4rd]

The heater control and lighter bulb is BA9S. I did not put a led in the high beam light. The brake uses a 194 bulb.

That's pretty freakin' sweet!!

Where do you locate the size of bulbs for the dash? Owner's manual? Shop Manuals? I need to replace my high beam indicator light and I might as well brighten it up with some RED LED's while I'm in there.

*edit* duplicate post

Just to let everyone who has the headligt relay upgrade know, when i installed the upgrade it no longer pulled enough juice to light the red led 194 i had in the Hi beam indicator.

this isn't a big loss as the normal 194's will still work.

i beleive all 70-current dash lights are 194's and 69 back are probably the ba9's ore something simmiliar in size.
