Its not really a kit its just you pull the cluster out, take old bulbs out insert new bulbs and put it all back together. Oh yea and before you put it all back together make sure you got them all working otherwise if ones off they all dont work.

I may be mistaken but i think you needed one more 74 bulb in order to do the HVAC and doors... 2 for the doors and 2 for the HVAC... at least thats what i ordered, and what i was told..

I used red leds for my gauge cluster. but one burned out, tried replacing it and i thought i had a problem with a connection somewhere b/c it would take another led. So i ended up going back to regular 194 bulbs.

to be honest, i could not tell a difference between the red leds that i had in the clsuter compared to the regualr 194 bulbs.

Here are my pics with the LEDs when it was working

just the overlay

an the 93-96 camaro uses 7 194 LEDs, the 97-02 may be different it's best just to take out the cluster and count the ones that light up, when the lights are on.

Yup, my 6LE gauges are red and I'd think it would have been too much red.

The blue'ish' color would match my HID's.
