looks good, i cant wait to do mine.

good luck and let us know about the AC unit.

 

dam ive been dyin todo my climate control to match everything else

 

I'm dying to do them! Do you any the actual bulb size to do them? I know you had to modify but I'd rather not do it if I have to.

 

Did you get any more info on the AC controls? I know vipguy was talking about dremeling some bulb plugs, but which ones in particular? The LEDs from LEDlight.com don't come with any plugs do they? Like you said PWidow, it would be better if we just knew what size to use if there's a direct replacement.

 

hey vipguy or pwidow,

do either of you know what bulb size it is for the drivetrain portion of the cluster(the part that says P,N,R,D,2,1)? is it a 74 bulb like everything else?

I only wanna take the cluster out once, so i wanna make sure i get everything right the first time

 

how the hell do you get these little bulbs out!?!?!?!?!

its like they're glued in the plastic casing. wtf...

 

The leads are wrapped around the plastic housing. If your trying to use LED's your best bet is to find some that have the housing, or just solder them with resistors into the location on the PCB.

 

ok, i have a question.

the 8 spots on the back of the cluster that will hold the white wideband LEDs.

I replaced them all, but only 4 of the 8 work. All i did was stick in the LED bulb where the old one was. Do i have to put anything else in there? i've pulled the metal leads inside a little so the bulbs held in tight. What more would i have to do?

Pwidow, vipguy, twojayzee...any answers to these?

 

Lexatlast,
I hope you're taking pictures of this man. You know I have to do this next and I don't need to come back and ask the same questions.

 

lol no worries. I've taken this cluster out 4 times in the last 4 days trying to figure out what i need to do to make this work how i want it to.

many pics have been taken lol.

looks way different than my corolla tach looked like from the back lol...

 

What kind of LED's did you use ? If you got 3.5v LEDs you'll need resistors.

 

you are exactly correct, all i had to do was flip them and they all worked EXCEPT for one lol. That one is probably cause of dirty contacts or somethin, so i'll take it out ONE more time and get it all right. Great suggestion on the wideband lights though VIPguy, they look really nice!

Climate control is next

twojayzee, the LEDs i got were the ones suggested on the first page of this thread, wideband LEDs, no resistors needed as far as i can tell

 

did my key ring light too, lol it was mad easy, took 5 minutes

 

Damn I forgot that it's a 74 bulb also. I just dine mine since I had 2 extra leds from my cluster install. It really is easy!

 

hey pwidow, lemme know when you do your climate control. i know vipguy said we would probably have to modify the bulb plugs for the LEDs, but if you do it soon, could you take pictures? i probably won't be able to do mine for about 2 weeks or so...absolutely no time
