I'm about to order some LED bulb replacements for my gauge cluster (getting blue). I read that there is 3 bulbs you need to replace. But my questing is if the clock has its own bulb, because my clock bulb is burnt out anyway. Would that make 4 bulbs? If so what is the bulb number for the clock.

blue doesnt look good behind the white face. i tried this and went back to white led. it looks terrible at night and its extremly hard to read the gauges. if you had a base model cluster i think it would work, but behind white, . i forget the numbers man, i just went through all this not even a few months ago. 194 for the lights and 74 or 68 for the clock?? something like that.

Ok cool. I just put an order for over $50 in different LED lights. I will make a topic when I'm done. I'm replacing the Cluster, Overhead dome, trunk, License plate, and map lights. Should be something fun to keep me occupied.

Yea i got all my stuff from superbrightleds.com But im not only doing the cluster. Im basically redoing all the lighting in the cabin (including trunk) and my license plate lights. I think I bought a total of 9 LEDs. Two of them were kinda expensive, like $6.00 and the other was $14.00 I believe.
