Don't bother buying the one with the stepper motors. It doesn't make any sense to do so. They don't even work in our gauge clusters. Also buyer beware of ebay LEDs. I've bought my fair share of them and they don't last anywhere close to what an average led should. I've actually bought a set of white LEDs from eBay and they've had slightly different, yet noticable colour variations.
You could just buy these and use whatever 194 bulbs that you want.

There's also the big names like VLeds, SuperBrightLEDs, and I'm sure there's others. It would be worth your money, due to the effort to get the gauges out and in, to buy your LEDs from one of them instead.

Get Warm White strips then, and use those.
Avoid Cool White - they're a lot more bluish than Warm White.
Ditto for the LEDs.

those T4 and t5 blubs drop in the switches. I got red ones back in the day for them. The info is on here for what exactly you need, one of them requires the T4 and the rest T5 or something like that. For the cluster get 194's and drop them right in. If your going red you'll have to tear into it and scrape off all the blue crap, again there is a how to on here someplace.
