194 is what you're looking for, but get the 360 degree version...the kind that point straight aren't bright enought IMO. You only need 4 of the 360 kind, just for the ones that light up the guages. The rest of them you can use the 1 direction which are cheaper if you feel like replacing those as well.

Re: Gauge Cluster Light Bulbs
I currently have these in all the lights holes in my cluster (WLED-x5 Cool White)
But like I said, they aren't bright enough because of the single direction. They work good for all the indicator lights, but the gauges could be a bit brighter. I'm gonna go with the WLED-xHP6-AC's when I get the new ones because they are the cheapest: Really, I'd rather go with the WLED-xHP5's because they are brighter, but they don't come in Cool White and I like the semi blueish tint they give off. The next available 360 degree one that comes in Cool White is $12 a pop, and it's just not worth it and might even be too bright since there's no way to dim them.

Re: Gauge Cluster Light Bulbs
No problem! Based on the picture alone, it's much brighter than what I'm running. I don't have that type of cluster, but I think all the lights in the center are just going to show your indicators when activated (turns/dummy lights), not illuminate the area.
Post the night time pics if you took them!
