Default LED’s

Ok Friends, you guys have been very helpful with my project on replacing my new carbon fiber dashboards and the lights on both pods on each sides of the instruments cluster. I installed LEDs and were working and now for some reason they stopped working. So I’m going back to lights. On several post you guys mention the Radio Shack lights. Since Radio Shack no longer exist, does any one have an up to date number on the lights that is needed so that I can get them. Again thanks for the support

Nick

Personally, I ordered everything from http://www.vleds.com/ and I have never received an incorrect part. Just input your vehicle info and select the bulb you want.

Oh, those little single LED nodes behind the buttons! My mistake, I was thinking bulbs, not nodes. Disregard my first post.

The number for those little bulbs is "7219" so a quick google search for "7219 bulb" or "7219 LED bulb" will bring up a bunch of results, including lots from Amazon like RPOZ posted.

Sorry for the confusion.

Those look awesome. Are they dimmable ? (I usually run with the lights up all the way, but some have said LEDS are too bright.)

OOOps! .... I saw your Amazon link, those aren't LED's so they are dimmable.

Anybody know if LEDS for dash lights are dimmable.

To RPOZ4Z I ordered what you recommended and I should have them by tomorrow. Most likely I will get them when I am at work ( I work in the evening). So most likely I will be installing them Thursday. I've been driving 3with my dashboard disassemble, not fun. Thank you, thank you !!!
