LED's in Instrument-Panel

Dear Members,

I'm installing LED's in my '92 RS I.P.

Basically my steps were:
A) Remove IP and lightbulbs
B) Break the halogen light and pull it out, this may not have been necessary but I didn't know how else to get the light out.
C) Solder in LED's

The LED's I'm using are superflux 4-chip blue from Oznium.com.

Here's the solder and silicon work, haha not the prettiest, but i'll post more pics of when its actually installed too.

You could have gone to www.superbrightleds.com and purchased the replacement bulb without doing an work. The old bulbs just pull out of the socket and you reinstall the new bulbs, they are 194's. I hope this makes you job easier.

Some are 194's some are 74's

Also note, most LED bulbs have thicker or longer housings so be sure to measure stock vs superbrightleds sizes to ensure a proper fit.
