i believe the cheapest and easiest way is to replace the t5 bulbs with white t5 LEDs you can probably get them super cheap on ebay. Also i think there are a few t10's too.

For legit t5's
360 degree might make a bright spot = 74-xHP3

For legit t10's
360 degree and shouldn't create and bright spots = WLED-xHP6-AC

nice! i am asking to see if you would want to take cluster out it's super easy. put steering the steering wheel down all the way and out, pull out the bottom piece of trim, take out the 2 screws on the top of cluster, pull cluster unplug, then take out the 6 screws maybe less on the back of the cluster and you'll be able to see all the bulbs, they just twist and pull out.

there is a mix, i am trying to remember if the t5's even light up the back lighting... They might only be for the check lights.

this is what i used when i did mine a couple of months ago. if after you do it and some light up then just take those ones and turn it, what happens to me on 2 of them. just got the polarity backwards

Save yourself the trouble and simply smack the top of the dash with an open hand once or twice. This is a tried and true way of getting all the dash lights back on. Trust me; it works like a charm. :-)

Standard is #37, but #24 sylvanias are brighter and fit just the same.
