Ok yeah I know you clicked this expecting probably see something......... well here

I reaplced the stock gauge cluster bulbs and did not sand anything. I was hoping not to have to deal with putting the needles back on correctly. I have done it a couple times and it always seemed to be off a little bit every time!

Anyway, I got the LEDS quite some time ago and didn't do the swap because I seen people having issues with red. Now I'm looking for an orange glow to make it look like my Defi gauges............ put them in and see there is a "new better LED bulb" (above picture)

There is the link, I have the top ones on that page in, should I get the second ones? I ask because it not very bright and I'm not sure I will be able to stand it. Has anyone used these?
Thanks

I don't know how the red would work but if you were going to do it the ones to use would be the superstars. Apparently people have done the blue, and white with great results. Very bright with even glow just like stock.

yeah I used the wedge matrix bulb because at the time there was no "super star", now there is a super star and I think I may order a set up in red/orange to try and match them to my Defi gauges. There pretty dim right now, not a real problem yet........... but I havn't driven at night since I did the mod.
Thanks for the input

Do you have any pictures even though they are dim. The superstars will definately be brighter. It would be cool to at least have an idea of what they will look like.

yeah, Hack is on it. There is a link in my original post about the 194 you need for the auges. You'll need 6 to do it. I thought about it and I may just take the needles off. I have RPM's displayed on my E-01 and I have a temp gauge so I really will only need to be extra carefull with the speedo and fuel, the rest I can adjust
