Hey there guys, I really need to know where i can buy gauges and get them and some other stuff installed. I need bulbs in the instrument cluster and I need a bulb in the shifter replaced. Id really rather just pay someone to do it because I don't have any time. if anyone on the forum that lives by Portland OR wants to help that would be great. i would make it worth your while. Or if some one knows of a chain shop that does it that would be great also. if the DIY had pics still I might consider trying it but it doesn't. Also could someone tell me where the bulb is for the 1 2 d3 d4 ect on the auto shifter? Well I'm super tired so I don't think most of this makes sense, so sorry for that. Thanks in advance. Chris

i am almost positive you cant change the bulb for d1,d2,p,d,r. it is welded in.

i will be switching mine out soon, (odemeter isnt working), and I will turn the project into a DIY with pictures.
I will do a DIY indiglo gauge installation with a connection to the dimmer switch so you dont have to click a button to use them.

DIY= do it yourself.
I will be doing it in about a month. Kind of far away :)

Hey Mike, do you know if its possible to actually buy replacement bulbs for our instrument clusters?

I went in a swapped out the gear lights a while ago cuz my D4 went out, but I'd like to eventually replace the blown out bulb and have them all light up again. Also, the bulb behind my fuel gauge just quit on me last week, so I'd need one of those too. Maybe you have an old, used cluster laying around you could part some bulbs from? :D

Here are the bulbs you need: Bulb T5/Bulb T1/Bulb T2/Bulb T3/Bulb T4. That what you meant? -Mike
Wow thats awesome dude. Great stuff.

I was thinking about just replacing the busted bulbs with new ones so everything will light up like they are supposed to. Do those new LED lamps fit perfectly where they are supposed to go in our clusters? or do they need some modifications to get in? I'd love to swtich over to the LEDs but don't want to make a week long project out of it. Let me know when you get a chance, thanks again!

hey mike, i have a couple more questions for you if you dont mind. the numbers in cluster light up but i cant see the needles at all. do you know what bulb would be out for that to happen? maybe the top one? also the buttons on the climate control dont light up, im not sure if they are supposed to or not. the little green light under the button that is selected works but the pictures dont. if you could let me know what you think that would be great. thanks again.
