I just ordered 13 blue wledx5 leds from superbrightleds.com. when you put these in the sockets, is there a certain way to put them in? do you have to line up positive and negative sides in the socket or is that just with do it yourself leds? thx in advance.

 

I can't help you there Camaro Man but I believe I read on their website that the LEDs contain circuitry to prevent you from installing them backwards. I don't know if that means they will work in either direction or just won't light when installed backwards. I'm interested in the answer to this also as I am considering the same mod for my sons car. Let me know if the 5 led is a good brightness for the dash when your done. My son's car has autometer Cobalt (blue) guages in the drivers pillar and I would really like the dash lights to match.

 

I found some info about the leds.

5-LED super wide angle 194/168 wedge base bulbs
4 radially mounted 3mm LEDs emit most of the light from the sides of the bulbs
1 High Flux LED emits from the end of the bulbs
These bulbs are non-polarized

I think non-polarized means you can put them in any way you want.
