i jus changed my gauge clusters to oem....the one on the sides (fuel, O/D, seatbelt, etc) doesnt emit enough light for the leds to shine thru....i have the #74 blue leds now and i cant even see it thru them side guages...at night its barely visible...would the WHITE LEDs help at all?...or should i just stick back to oem bulbs......is there anyway to lighten up the "filter" that they have?.....any help wold be great....

you'll need to get a led like the 5-led matrix's, superstars or similar to illuminate the cluster properly
oops didnt read it through properly, just ignore this =/ This post has been edited by Predator: Nov 24, 2006 - 3:40 PM -------------------- |

hmm, i've put num74 leds in my turn signals and in my hi-beam. the turn signals are visible in the daylight. haven't really checked my hi-beam during the day. most of the side ones are warnings so i didn't want to play with them.
i want to say check the polarity (make sure the leds are plugged in right-way-round). but uh, please don't be insulted by that (i do it all the time myself). |
