You can make your own for less if you are handy - just got 100 super brights from parts express with 50 100ohm dropping resistors and 50 470 ohm...you can create them as a string, or separate so if one goes they do not all go. choose the right resistor and they will dim.

Just did a kenwood receiver with them, they do look good.

Edited to add: cost $10

On mine, I did the white overlays and the white LEDs.. Well worth the $32!

This looks really sharp!

Where did you get the overlays at?

My google fu turned up only complete instrument clusters.

Thanks

Updated my dash lighting with LEDs. I copped two 10 packs on Amazon. :popcorn: Bright blue light is an aftermarket tach.

Hmmm i will def need to consider this mod since the dash lights in my truck suck! Are the LEDs plug and play in the clusters of these trucks? By that i mean are the old bulbs easy to remove from their holders?

Yes! they are plug and play. They have the same connection except they only get power one way. Flip em if you get no power at first. I got these on Amazon for $6!

That looks really nice! I need to update mine. I've been doing the outside right now.
