Led Bulbs???
 

Hey Guys

I want to change my actual gauge "bulbs" to LED ones, anyone know where in Ontario you can get LED bulbs, gauges look and work perfect, so, dont want to redo them, just the bulbs, any help is appreciated!!

Well i know that auto zone has some of the, led bulbs that would work but the they may have a limited sleection of colors. would do a internet search or Ebay it.

also i know that on alot of camaro sites and stuff like www.motownmuscle.com their is people that make kits to convert clusters and such to led... maybe check that out too.

Great!, thanks will have a look!, we dont have "Auto Zone" up here in Ontario, but, will try and get over next time I am near the cottage [St Lawrence River], Thanks for the tip!

OK, thanks for ALL the help guys, I have found a place that sells LED lights and they are quite reasoable!, my one question is about color, my gauges are white faced Gaffrig's, and the bulbs that where originally in the gauges had "red" diffusers over them, however, some of the LED websites I checked out claim that you should use bulbs with the same color as your gauge faces?, which in my case are white. I could probably get away just fine with White bulbs, but, do like the look of the red light on the gauges, any thoughts???

AS ALWAYS, THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!1

ebay is very cheap. you could try one of each. i went with amber

Great, thanks guys!, I did manage to find most of them on Ebay, just have to figure out which one is for my compass and I will be all set, Thanks again!

Radio Shack. you can check em out online also

DO NOT USE WHITE!! It will ruin your night vision everytime you look at the gauges. Research it, but I think blue, red and some other colors dont mess with your eyes as much.

I tried "Radio Shaft", but, the kid behind the counter had NO idea what I was looking for, I tried online too, but, no luck, would have been cool too, there is a store about 5 mins from my house.

I have had several others tell me that red is the way to go and doesn't affect nite vision, which makes sense, all the military stuff is "red" when using nite vision, thanks for all the help!!

They (Radio Shack) have the 12 v led's, look on the electronic shelf, in the drawrs, they will be there, I just bought 6 last week for a project
