Re: Need pic of stock instrument cluster lit up at night
I just rebuilt my cluster today. Painted all the needles and cleaned the electrical contacts. I pute 168 bulbs in mine and they are bright too.
I also removed my fiber optic cable and wired an LED into my shift pointer. All came out much better than I had even anticipated. |

Re: Need pic of stock instrument cluster lit up at night
If you want brighter than 168 you can use 17177 bulbs. I swapped out my 168 to 17177 and it is a real upgrade and the same price as 168 [ sorry no pics at this time]

Re: Need pic of stock instrument cluster lit up at night
Where can you get the 17177 bulbs? I can't find here locally.
I always thought the 194 bulbs were brighter than the 168 |

my truck was modified to be hot rod truck out in the dunes by the 2 previous owners, i have been changing it back to somewhat stock every sence i bought it. they had a monster recall tack where the speedometer should be. i have all the fun stuff done, now all the not so fun begins. |
