You bought something like these to put in your illumination bases? They will be way too dim I think. One of those LEDs (well, it was a red one, just had one left over, dunno if color would matter much though) couldn't even light my odometer evenly.VG33QX4 wrote:kind of curious. i just read a post, guy said using white leds showed slightly blue in the cluster, thats what im going for so i ordered regular forward firing led bulbs not SMT, just curious about what it will look like, i figured the smt would be too bright. anybody got pics at night of non smt led bulbs? thanks qx4 if possible 2000
VG33QX4 wrote:yea thats what i got
color does matter white is 6200 mcd blue is 1860 and red is 5600mcd
so white led much brighter but i was just curious if anyone had a picture of what it would look like
SMD tri-LED in all 4 illumination spots and odometer. These, specifically. "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" has a Red 74-XHP LED, while every other warning light has a normal 74-x LED of matching color (except O/D off, the gas warning light, and the (nonfunctional, since I'm in the US) washer fluid light).VG33QX4 wrote:What kind led you use for gauge? Smd ? One led or three
What's in your odometer spot
VG33QX4 wrote:Ok well in my qx4. The ashtray bulb is a 2721 size not a 74.
So in your shifter location you have a smd tri power?
The tri led are not overwhelmingly bright? I got the single smd and I am wondering if I should have got the tris
It appears nobody has a pic of single smd nor regular led
These will fit.VG33QX4 wrote:what is the correct size in led for the 2721 bulb all over it says 2721 same as 74 but this is not true i have verified this in my own vehicle attempting to place a 74 in the ashtray part results in it being too big.
It's just the pic. It's still significantly brighter than the stock bulb, but it's still readable and not blinding.jpedderson wrote:That looks sweet! Is your odo really that bright or is it just the pic?

you cant just "change" it. Soldering is involved.
those bulbs are so small and its a TIGHT squeeze... be very careful... i got 2 in and the last one snapped inside i gave up.. it still looks good though.VG33QX4 wrote:FYI
the 4wd switch has 3 bulbs and they are small micro bulbs regular filament bulbs and the cig lighter is a 74
