Anyone else have their gauge backlight going out? I had one go out behind my tach 2 months ago and didnt feel like ripping it apart to try and fix it. Now about 2 days ago the backlight behind my Coolant Temp gauge went out and I can barely see the temp at night 
Anyone able to tell me or link me to where I can fix these darn things myself? |

LED's are much better than incandescent bulbs especially when they are hard to get to! |

Great, thanks for the How-To 
If you know the p/n for some LED replacements, that would be even better. I'll just replace em all. |

this would b something that would have to be experimented with since no one actually manufactures a kit like this. rush 345 knows the part number for the incandescent bulbs and from that i could get info on size and watts (the LED's would probably need a resistor) to replace the bulbs with. hmmm, i may just have to rip my instrument cluster apart. plus the LED's would b brighter and since they have a longer service life, you wouldnt have to worry about em blowing out again. |
