LED Dash lights

FYI... I ordered a bunch of these. I will report back on how they work/look if anyone is interested.

Geebs -- I kinda feel like a heel now for not reporting back after swapping out just about every light on my car with LEDS.  Here's what I can tell you.  

#1.  The lot you bought will replace a good portion of but not all the lights in your dash.  There were several odd balls in there.  You've started down the path and cannot escape its clutches now and you'll be bent on switching the rest out after seeing the differences, especially side by side.

#2.  The LEDS do make a huge difference as far as visibility goes and if they are a soft white it just looks so much nicer than brown/yellow light given off incandescents

#3.  The biggest difference in lighting changes I made were with the backup lights and gear indicator -- OMG what a difference -- I can actually see what I'm backing up towards now and what gear I'm in at night.

#4.  For some reason I've yet to get my high beam bulb to work with an LED -- swap it back for incandescent and there is no problem.  Kinda weird.  Maybe it's an anomaly of my car or perhaps it's in the circuitry somehow -- please share your findings.  This IIRC is one of the "different" bulbs though.  The others that come to mind IIRC are turn signals ( unless you want them to flash white ), heater controls, gear indicator, and maybe more but it's 4am so I not all together thinking right this morning

Great upgrade though.  Got expensive when you start getting into the exterior lights.  Id suggest looking at www.superbrightleds.com -- you can buy all the bulbs one would need, in various colors, levels of intensity, and angles of light broadcasting.  They also have a tool that will show you which bulbs work where --  but it wasn't always right, remember its just a tool -- better to pull the manual and cross reference the old #'s.

No worries. I began to put them in tonight. First one worked great, the rest don't work. I'm not sure if it is the bulb holder or the connection to the back of the dash. What I have seen I do like so far. I got the blue lights on accident though. I am not crazy about that.

Try rotating bulb in the socket 180, they have a polarity.....

Nice reply - rotating worked! Thanks!!
