Is this with one of those "white face" gauge kits, or did you just change the LED's? |

I've been checking for LED's to get this look for my dash, and go figure the local "CanadianTire" here in Canada, doesn't carry them. I was refered to a website, but I am still not sure which ones to get. Should I get these, the 74-xHP's??

Or do you, Nate, have different ones in your dash? I really like the look of your dash. Looks to be a very nice level of light.
Any and all help would be appreciated.
Thanks. |

easy way? order the ones from www.superbrightleds.com
i don't remember the type... but they are 194s. You need 5.
my blue setting looks like his, but i have a red setting too. custom work, you can fit 2 leds per holder. |

This perticular link being white LEDs. I would want the blue ones http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T10-Blue-6-LED-Light-Bulb-W5W-194-2825-501-158-168-147_W0QQitemZ380177481446QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors _Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item588457fee6 for the look of your dash in the picture, correct? Or am I to assume that since you stated you had white LEDs, that the white ones will give this effect?? I am confuse?? As well as a white set for the license plates??

Thanks for the info Nate. I just went and bought some off of Ebay, PLUS, I got an Impala LED 3rd brake light for $16.95 shipping included!! Not bad considering how much money some people are asking for them!!  |

Just installed these today!... I think the paper makes a big difference, The warning lights just stood out too much. Sorry about the cell phone pics,was all i had around.
Some of the warning lights on the overlays were words and my gauges are icons, but no big deal... only see it at start up, The light still is bright. last thing i need to do is change the cluster bulbs to red for the needles and get use to driving in MPH.
