product report... suprebrightleds.com I bought bulbs 11/08/11

i have one gauge on my A-pillar flickering. sadface.


ahha i have no idea, but i really like the increased brightness. what a weird coincidence that you bright up LEDs, right when one of mine fails. but yea, I think the bulb i used works great for the domelight.. but they do not dim. It sounds like that diy panel will have a bigger output... but really it comes down to what you feel like doing. at night, i never have an issue finding something due to poor lighting. hope my vague non-direct answer helps :p

green LED's came in today. Let's see this factory2.0 gauge set up :p





ok so i got interupted with an 11 minute phone call... but the whole ordeal should take 30-45 minutes.. I got held up with so accesory switches... but stockers should do it in no time.  

my speedo cluster intself took 3 bulbs. all down the middle in a line. i used old white LEDs for my left, right blinker lights and bright. 2 for my clino. and 2 for my pods.


I'm happy with most of there stuff... I understand quality control might not be the best so ill give them the benefit of the doubt. Even so i love the difference enough to where a little dash manuevering is no big deal. These do not dim, but I have ordered dimables for my moms dome light.. on accident. Lol.

On to the pics.

Obviously my cellphone doesn't do it justice. The pods aren't way brighter than the cluster. Very pleased with the results. Maybe the climate control needs to be green too? Not sure what I want.. lol
