Re: LED Dash Lights

Found mine on ebay, there easy to install and make a huge difference and look fantastic. If you do find some, make sure they already have the resistors in them.

Re: LED Dash Lights

I also bought mine on ebay...unfortunately I cant share a pic because MySpace is apparently having issues today with the photo sections. The polarity of these when you install them DOES matter, all diodes, including light emitting ones, will only pass current in one direction. If you put them in, plug in your cluster before permanently installing it, turn on all lights to make sure they work. If not, just bull the bulb out and flip it 180 degrees and reinstall.
