    Well I got some inspiration from a cousin
    http://www.cartype.com/pages/3407/ford_mustang_gt__2010
    and installed some LED's on my cluster feel free to comment (by the way the fuel gauge needle is messed up as copper leads of the cluster got bent and I gotta pull it back out and fix it).

    Looks like it gives you a lot more light. Makes them easier to read. :)

    X4 I like that look. I pulled my cluster a few months ago and put in some stock 194's but, not what I hoped in the way of brightness. It's a big improvement over what I had - I had just 2 bulbs workin.
    I wud be willing to pull the cluster agn for that kind of improvement.

    That doesn't really apply though, if you notice in my post i've used led's before with very bad luck.

    I want to know which ones the OP used, i cant get that info trough a google search :huh:

    ok, you win :thumbs2:

    but i'd be interested, too - my mustang has blue caps over the bulbs which makes it green-ish, but the picture of his illuminated dash is really awesome!
