SN95 LED Gauge Cluster

The film is blue so no.

I found a writeup somewhere showing a way to basically sand down the blue to use any color led. The HVAC had a film you could just rip out.

Yes, that is correct.

Went searching and still couldn't find the write-up I spoke of. Did find a few fourms of people who did sand down the back of the gauge face and it worked fine. Just remove your needles, pull off the layer with your gauge numbers on them, and take some fine grain sandpaper to the back. Don't worry about being perfect just sand over generally all the numbers. Once you're past that first layer you should be good to go. Hvac is easier, just remove the faceplate and pull out the blue film right behind the front. Good Luck!

Great bumped thread Twista since I've had red LED's just chillin for a long time.

Sooooo can someone tell me what the hell the talk is about sanding down the blue? I've got red and would really like to use them..

 

[g36 monkey]

pull out your gauge cluster, and sand down the blue, and put it back in with red LEDs. There I told you lol

I have a quick question. Is there any reason not to also replace the warning, high beam, and turn indicator light bulbs with LEDs? Does anyone know what the bulb number is for those? I can't find it anywhere.

 

[whiplash473]

They're all the same, no one replaces them with LED becuase it's a waste of money (if you buy good bulbs).

 

[Jimzstang]

I threw some cheap led bulbs into the dash and hvac ... I like the look! Cost me 9 bucks lol
