autometer guages, switch to blue leds?
I have a complete cluster of autometer phantom guages and wanted to switch them to blue bulbs. Seen that the autometer brand ones are $12.95 each through summit, definitely won't swap them out for that price. Anyone used something different? Poked around on evilbay, but unsure which ones to use.

Re: autometer guages, switch to blue leds?
I read this awhile ago, but was too lazy to look up the LED's. I've never seen an LED liek that, so looks like getting raped is the only way to do it...
EDIT: I checked out the link you have and I think those will work... at 10/$7.00 you can't really go wrong, even if they don't work...

Re: autometer guages, switch to blue leds?
I am looking to do the same thing to my ultra lites but the problem I have is that my speedo gauge is sealed and I am unable to get into it to change out the bulb. Im not doing all my other ones w/o the speedo. Im sure autometer would want a few bucks to convert it over.

those LEDs look real nice, wouldn't hesitate to use those myself. price and performance look to be dead on. post a pic when you're done!
