Question Quick question: How many lights in 97+ gauge cluster?

Hey i'm ordering some blue LED's for my gauge cluster from http://www.superbrightleds.com/ . How many bulbs are needed for a 97+ guage cluster? I did a search and came up with 5 and 7 . I'm pretty sure its 5 right? I need someone to confirm this because I don't really want to take my dash all apart to find out I will have to do it again because I need two more bulbs. Thanks for the help.

I didnt see your post till today, Bryan- sorry for the semi-delayed response.

By my count, there are 6 bulbs to change in all: In actuality, there are 9, but two are your turn signal bulbs, and one lights up your odometer if i'm not mistaken. So: here's what you do-

Buy 7 bulbs- if I'm right (which i think i am but not 100% sure cuz my battery is drained and my alternator isnt working and i can't meefing test this assumption, but i have looked at the back of the speedo very carefully), then you can install the 6 bulbs minus the turn signals and odometer bulb, then with the remaining bulb, you can put it in your glove compartment to light it up nice and blue also.

If you need help w/ the install check page 4 of my sig- it's decently detailed. Good luck,
J

Thanks for the reply J. Glad I asked before just buying 5. Nice write up on this by the way, that will come in handy when I go to change them out. Thanks again!
