Gauge Cluster Color Change?
is it possible to change the color of the cluster by swapping out the bulbs for colored leds, i know the gauges take 194 wedge bulbs, just was wondering if changing them would change the color or at least the lcd screen illumination color
thanks
thanks

I tried LEDs and failed. Unless there is a LED bulb with diffuse light, what I found was the LEDs would only light up a small pinpoint area of the gauges leaving the majority unreadable. I settled in with yellow (not amber) incandescent bulbs and I really like the end result.

Riff, try diffuse LED's they are not round topped, they are an upside down cone and they spread light well. Otherwise sand the led and it will loose the beam focus, dont sand too far or you will hit the element.
