Gauge Lightingmadtown22 09-23-2006, 02:53 PM Just a Quick question, how hard is it to change the lighting behind your gauge cluster. I'm tired of the orange and want to go with a blue but I have never really done any lighting, when it comes to cars. Any help on time frame for work or maybe what kind of bulbs are behind the panel would help thanks. JaysZ24 09-23-2006, 03:21 PM I know they r just clear bulbs n shine thru a filter that makes them a different colour i wish i could have it red Derk_eliso 09-23-2006, 03:30 PM Just a Quick question, how hard is it to change the lighting behind your gauge cluster.

Lances133 09-23-2006, 03:47 PM ^ Good one - 2002 Mazda Millenia :lol: JaysZ24 09-23-2006, 05:10 PM Is there a way that i could have my gauges light up red Lances133 09-23-2006, 06:29 PM Mine do, but they came with the car when I bought it, the needle is still that amber/orangy color tho. Probly need to buy a custom gauge face and then get the color LED's you want.

Lances133 09-24-2006, 02:19 AM Ha, thanks Cody. U DA MAN YO :smokin: :Edit: What did you mean by #74 and #194, I looked at the site and couldn't find anything that said 74 or 194, was I not looking hard enough? 01Cavy 09-24-2006, 03:21 AM I did a little search into this... pre-2000 guys are in for an easy swap, anyone post 2000 I don't advise you doing this since you have to remove your needles to access the lighting. 95-99 guys... #74's X 2 for HVAC #194 X 4 for cluster.. www.superbrightleds.com Have fun! Hmmm...I may buy me another cluster to test it on first. If I can get it to work, then I'll use that cluster. Classicrocjunkie 09-24-2006, 10:23 AM the LEds are on page 2 when you get to the right section of the website. You have to read the fine print. BUt those are the bulb #'s that you need. I'm going to get some for my Autometer gauges as well. Lances133 09-24-2006, 10:33 AM ^ Nice, that should be pretty cool. Have you heard of www.oznium.com for Led's and such as well? Are they the same type of leds or whatever?

Do we know what # the bulbs are for the needles? Or are they included with the 194's for the cluster? JaysZ24 10-11-2006, 10:03 PM Im so glad i seen this thread again im going to get some of them tomaro n have red gauges now Also i just got finished clear coating my interior peices so i can put the bulbs in when im putting all them parts on Lances133 10-14-2006, 05:03 PM I fucking hate Jbo sometimes, some of them are just a bunch of cunts and can't answer with a simple number, god damn they piss me off. CODY WHAT'S THE DAMN ANSWER?! lol :lol: JaysZ24 10-14-2006, 05:22 PM I tried takeing the bulbs out of my cluster and they r in a green thing that screws into the back of the cluster but i couldn't get the bulbs out of the green thing they were stuck in it.
