Cluster Lights

Hey guys, does anyone have a good solution for replacement gauge cluster lights? My light for the fuel and battery level battery gauges went out. I would like something that is white light like leds but I don’t want to get something that is gonna heat up or short anything. I figured I’d check here first

 

Well....I think you answered your own question....LED replacements. Its a pretty common thing to do when the factory lights burn out. Choose them in the color and brand that you like. You can replace everything but the battery warning light with LED's without a problem. It does take a little trial and error as LEDs are polarity sensitive so if any don't light up, remove them, turn them 180º and try again.

 

Sweet! Thank you so much. Should I be able to find them on Amazon or am I going to have to look somewhere more automotive centered?

 

I got mine from Amazon. You should be able to search and find links to the specific ones you will need. The large bulb sizes are pretty easy to find, the little ones for the gear indicators are harder to find I seem to remember but amazon has everything, just a matter of figuring out which ones you need.

 

Along with @Aerindel comment about not replacing "battery warning light with LED's", I'll also suggest not changing the Low Fuel to LED, at least that is the choice I made due to the comment from a poster at the TS forum. While I was hesitant to agree until looking further, I became convinced, unless found out otherwise. The Low Fuel socket is different in color(grey vs black as seen in below pic), the bulb is physically different from a Type 74 and when I did test by plugging the LED in properly polarity wise, it indeed came on with IGN ON. The best I can tell with a magnifying glass is the bulb is Toshiba A14V3 and indeed there is a Toshiba A14V3.4WL

Below is the back of mine with pertinent info I came up with for me when I was changing to LED just to give you an idea.

 

Y’all some real ones. Thanks!
