It lights them up. If not you need brighter LED's or White LED's.

I use matrix 5 led from autolumination in green and there is a hell of a difference then the single from byvamp.

[goblin42]

do you have any pix of that matrix or your display?

[04RedSrt-4]

194s for the Cluster x 6
#74 Neo-Wedge for the HVAC x 3
194 for the stock boost gauge x 1
Single Inverted 194s for the turn signals x 2

I got all of mine from Autolumination.com, they light up everything beautifully.

Hey Lilsparkplug,

How long have you had your autolumination bulbs on? I originally went this route but had the same problem others had, the bulbs only lasted a few months!

Going on five years now Only one bulb went out.

hey lil spark, i can't tell in the photos because of the steering wheel, but does the part where it hits redline at 6K light up? i installed the Super Star led's from autolumination and i thought they would be super bright, but they are just as bright as yours and i paid more, but it does seem that i have a little bit of a dark spot at the 100 MPH mark and 3K RPM mark, don't know why though.

yeah i'm gonna try that tomorrow morning when i get home from work. but are you talking about the polarity issue? like it doesn't light up well one way, but when you turn the bulb the other way, it then lights up real bright?
