I have to replace the bulbs in my gauge cluster (1 burned out). Do these caps only fit the stock bulbs or will they fit on the smaller, much cheaper and easier to get replacements from Pep Boys?

They actually dont fit ANY of the bulbs at all.they are oversized so they don't wrap the bulb and create more heat on the surface of the bulb. I have found a great epoxy that is removable for installation of them.

hey im done with my cluster now the color is a deep blue but its obviously not as bright as the original ones, i will definitely pick up some of those sleeves, and ill post some pics up tommorow of my cluster, problems with re clusters is that they strain your eyes allot during driving , but if you can take it then why not , how much for those yellow needles ?
