I'm planning to this weekend make up some replacement bulbs from LEDs to go into my instrument cluster. I did some experiments last weekend and I've discovered a way to ensure that the lighting all stays even by using a diffuser on the end of the LEDs.
The plan is to use 3 super insanely bricght LEDs in place of each of the three 194 bulbs. And making up little adaptors so you can mount them in the stock bulb sockets will be pretty straight forward. I'll take some pictures during the process and write a how-to next week. Zac |
