I'm looking to change my dashlights to LED's as soon as I get my exhaust all finished up. I'm going to be ordering leds from superbrightleds.com. Which of the white bulbs should I use to get that real crisp clear white look?

 

I would go with a surface mount led strip i put two in mine they are 5050 smd leds nice even light no hot spots its not plug n play tho...i might hav some pics in my build thread if not ill take some pics tonight

Check out autolummination.com too

 

wled-x5 in the natural white color. get a few extra too cause iv had a few go out and then i have to order like 2 at a time and pay for shipping again. also get a 74xhp for the climate controls light.

U can use a lil bit of acetone on the actual cluster to get rid of the color on the numbers n sh!t. Tha way the light comes thru better.

 

Bout taking off the color on the gauges?

 

I did it its in my build thread the gauges have a green tint on them

 

They shouldnt be going out that soon thats a sign of cheap leds they should outlast your truck i wouldnt buy from them again

 

Here is mine on the hvac i put some Translucent colored film behind it to enrich the color you can see where it fell down in the blue its the lighter spot in the hvac i have a single 5050 #74 led plus i frosted the clear part behind the hvac


On my gauges i have thestrips as i said, i had to add a additional resistor to bring the brightness down and i added the translucent red film on the tach, it was really faded looking without it the info on the film is in my build thread im happy with it now
