LEDs

I want to replace the gauge lights in my dash with LEDs. I know from some other post on here that I will need 7 bulbs, but Im not sure which ones to get. So can anyone who has done this tell me what the number of the bulbs they bought are? I am going to get them from superbrightleds.com. I also read something about needing to get some kind of plug? can anyone help me out?

Get #194 replacements with a wedge base and they should plug right into the stock outlets.

They may or may not... My 93Z has the 194PC, were the plug and 194 bulb are mated together as 1 piece...

My experience is with the LS1. I sometimes forget that most of the questions here are 93-97 specific.

Makes it even more difficult when the person who asked the question didn't bother to tell us what year his car is.

I'll move this to "Appearance"..... seems to be a topic that gets covered there frequently.

I used 194s on my 97 bird but the one by the oil temp gauge kept going out.

I think it may be a problem with my panel though bc incandescent bulbs do the same thing
